Quinoa Tabbouleh Salad Recipe

Recipe By Real Simple

Though traditionally made with bulgur wheat, this twist on tabbouleh features quinoa instead for a protein-packed, gluten-free option that will liven up any meal. The salad is packed with fresh ingredientscucumber and tomatoes, fresh herbs and lemon juiceand it only gets better as it sits in the fridge. Serve it as a main dish topped with chicken, feta, or chickpeas, or enjoy it as a side alongside warm pita and hummus. We love it for lunch, too, so make a big batch on sunday and enjoy it throughout the week.
