I love Tabbouleh. A Mediterranean salad.Traditionally made with bulgar wheat. A friend is gluten free and I saw a video and sent it to her. Loving traditional I had to try this. Omg! So good! Gluten free. Very few calories full of nutrients..great for diets If you like traditional you can use this same recipe just swap out cauliflower for a 1/2 c bulgar uncooked. ( Cook as directed on package before making salad) I did use frozen florets and hand chopped as fresh was not in store ..it worked great. Thou the person who made the video did mention not to use frozen cauliflower rice.

method No-Cook or Other
