Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3/4 cup medium grain bulghur wheat
16 ounce can chick peas, washed, drained and chopped roughly
2 cups (net) finely chopped washed curly parsley
1/2 cup (net) finely chopped washed mint leaves
1 bunch scallions, green and white parts, finely sliced
4 ripe plum tomatoes or 2 medium regular tomatoes, seeded and diced
Grated lemon zest of 1 lemon
2 to 4 tablespoons fresh lemon juice or to taste
1/3 to 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
Salt and pepper
Boston lettuce leaves to present
Sliced cured black olives for garnish

Steps:

  • Cover bulghur wheat with cold water by 1 inch above the grain. Soak for 30 minutes. When plump and tender, drain the grains, squeezing out as much water as you can with your hands. Set the grains in a double layer of cheesecloth and squeeze out even more water.
  • Combine the bulghur wheat with chick peas, parsley, mint and scallions and tomatoes. In a small bowl combine lemon zest with olive oil and juice; season well with salt and pepper and stir into salad. Add more olive oil or lemon juice and serve immediately.

This salad is a bit bland for my taste. I would add more lemon juice and herbs.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover chickpeas. It's also a good source of protein and fiber.

I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed this salad. I'm not usually a fan of tabbouleh, but the addition of chickpeas and the dressing really made it for me. I'll definitely be making this again!
