Cynthia's Tabbouleh Recipe Variations.
Tabbouleh is a middle eastern bulgar wheat and herb dish that is low in fat and high in protein. I use a mix and buy any brand that is suitable.
Tomatoes and Cucumbers
Water as required by mix. Let stand 30 minutes or as directed by instructions.
Add:
1/8 cup olive oil
1/4 cup lemon juice
3 tomatoes, chopped
1 cucumber, diced
1 tsp. ground pepper
to wheat mixture, then cover and refrigerate for at least one hour before serving to allow wheat to absorb flavors.
Pine Nuts
Mix as above but add 1 cup of pine nuts for a meaty/nutty flavor.
Stuffed Tomatoes
Mix as above but add insides of hollowed-out tomatoes to wheat mixture instead of three medium tomatoes. Drain tomatoes after salting insides. Stuff wheat mixture into tomatoes and garnish with green olives.
Pineapple
Drain pineapple and reserve liquid. Add water to make amount of liquid as required by mix. Let stand 30 minutes or as directed by instructions.
Add:
1 20-ounce can crushed pineapple, drained as above
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup lemon juice
1 cup chopped onions
1 bell pepper, diced
1 tsp. ground pepper
to wheat mixture, then cover and refrigerate for at least one hour before serving to allow wheat to absorb flavors. This is a good salad or cold dessert.
