Mexican Tabouli Recipes

Steps:

• Place the bulghur in a large bowl, pour in the boiling water, and add the lemon juice, olive oil, and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt. Stir, then allow to stand at room temperature for about 1 hour.
• Add the scallions, mint, parsley, cucumber, tomatoes, 2 teaspoons salt, and the pepper; mix well. Season, to taste, and serve or cover and refrigerate. The flavor will improve if the tabbouleh sits for a few hours.

Steps:

• Bring the chicken stock to a boil on high in a medium saucepan. Remove from heat and add bulgur wheat. Stir to mix well, then cover and set aside. It needs to sit for 30 minutes, so now we work on the other components.
• Chop, slice and dice the veggies (tomatoes, green pepper, onion, chile) and throw them, beans and corn in a medium salad bowl, or if you plan on saving some for later in the week, it's easiest to put it directly in a large bowl of your food storage container of choice.
• Add dressing ingredients (the next 8 ingredients) to a bowl except oil, add slowly at the end whisking until combined.
• Allow bulgur wheat to cool, then add it to the veggies and toss to combine. Pour on the dressing and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least one hour. Remove from the fridge, add avocado, toss to combine (if you're looking at leftovers, keep avocado separate, tightly wrapped). Top with chips. Ole!

Steps:

• Place the bulgur in a small mixing bowl. Add the boiling water, mix and cover with a towel; Let stand for 1 hour. Drain any excess water.
• Combine the parsley, mint, tomatoes, onion, olive oil, lemon juice and salt. Add the bulgur; mix well and serve.

Steps:

• Use a fork to de-stem the parsley. Pick any remaining leaves with your fingers. Compost or save the stems for vegetable stock.
• Chop the parsley very finely and transfer to a medium bowl.
• Mince the tomatoes and transfer to a fine-mesh strainer, then set the strainer over another medium bowl. Sprinkle the tomatoes with a pinch of salt and mix. Let stand for 30 minutes, tossing occasionally, then add to the bowl with the parsley. Discard all but 2 tablespoons of the tomato water.
• Rinse the bulgur in a fine-mesh strainer under cold running water and drain well.
• Add 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, the bulgur, and water to the bowl with the reserved tomato water. Let stand until the grains are beginning to soften, about 1 hour or according to package instructions.
• Add the cucumber, scallions, mint, olive oil, soaked bulgur, remaining lemon juice, salt, and pepper to the bowl with the parsley and tomatoes. Toss to combine. Serve immediately.
• Enjoy!
