Paleo Superfood Tabouli
In the mood for Middle Eastern cuisine? Try this Paleo Superfood Tabouli (also known as Tabbouli or Tabbouleh). This vegan dish is gluten-free as it includes Hemp Seeds, a Superfood, instead of bulgur (cracked wheat). Remember that all the ingredients must be finely chopped for the right texture of Tabouli, especially the parsley. You could also use lemon juice instead of lime juice, add chopped green or red onions, omit the cucumbers, or add more olive oil to for a taste that best suits you and your guests as everything we cook is about the palate of who we cook for. For the best results, cover and refrigerate the tabouli for 30 minutes then serve.
