Millet Tabbouleh Recipe

Recipe By Slurrp

Millet Tabbouleh is a refreshing and nutritious salad made with cooked millet, fresh herbs, and vegetables. This gluten-free and vegan dish is a twist on the traditional Middle Eastern tabbouleh, replacing the bulgur wheat with millet. The millet adds a nutty flavor and a light, fluffy texture to the salad. Tossed with lemon juice, olive oil, and a medley of herbs like parsley and mint, this Millet Tabbouleh is a perfect side dish or light lunch option.
