Quinoa Tabbouleh image

This tabouli recipe is different. Instead of using bulgur like traditional tabouli, this recipe uses quinoa. It is a grain that is available at health food stores. It looks and tastes better than bulgur. My husband and I both love this and neither of us is vegetarian. It's a great meal for a hot summer day. The longer it sits the better it tastes.

This recipe was a disaster! The quinoa was undercooked and the dressing was way too sour.

Not bad, but not great either. The quinoa was a bit too al dente for my taste and the dressing was a bit too oily.

This was a great recipe! I used a mix of red and white quinoa and added some chopped sun-dried tomatoes for extra flavor. It was a big hit at my potluck.

Meh. I found this recipe to be bland and uninspired. The quinoa was mushy and the dressing was too acidic.

This recipe is a keeper! I've made it several times now and it's always a hit. The quinoa is a great substitute for bulgur wheat and the dressing is light and flavorful.
