In The Mood For Tabouleh

One of my favorite things to make with Parsley is Tabouleh. If you're not familiar with this refreshing dish, you need to be! It is a perfect appetizer or main dish for any occasion. With it's delicious lemony flavor, this Middle Eastern salad is definitely a crowd pleaser. Growing up, there were so many dishes I would get excited to eat-- whether my mom made them or we were able to indulge when we went over to my grandma's house-- and this was one of them. You can definitely adjust the flavors to your liking, but I think the more lemony the better. Keep scrolling for the recipe for the perfect Tabouleh and let me know what you think!

Best,
