Keto Tabbouleh Salad

18 ratings

Tabbouleh is such a flavorful salad and makes me wonder why I don’t make it more often! Normally, the salad is made with bulgar wheat, but I used cauliflower rice instead which is just as delicious!! You can serve the salad right away, but it is way better if it is allowed to sit for a couple hours in the fridge first.

      Make sure you use curly parsley, NOT flat Italian parsley. More lemon juice. If you can find the small paper boxes of spices at a natural grocery, they make a blend called “Middle Eastern” I believe. Gives it just a little more oomph. I make enough dressing for a week (x3) and it just gets better. This recipe is only 2 servings, IMO. Put the dressing ingredients in a jar and shake it up with a small clove of garlic. Cucumber is also a nice addition.

        I love Tabouli (Armenian spelling) but get heartburn from the bulgar. Thank you for the low carb version! I just ate two servings and not only is it delicious, but no heartburn in sight!

                      Never again. It was bitter. Parsley is a garnish not the main ingredient in a salad

                        Curly parsley is to attract butterflies laying eggs. Flat-leafed parsley is to attract diners to the table.

                        Use flat leaf parsley not curly. (Even though the pic shows curly! ) also choose smaller leaved younger parsley if possible

                        You can always change the parsley to your own liking. I know I don’t like curly so I would use flat leaf/Italian parsley. I’d probably mix it with kale as romaine too. It’s always best to know your personal preferences.

                        The main ingredient in Tabbouleh IS parsley and bulgar.

                        1. Did you use Italian parsley? It is less bitter than the curly stuff used for garnish. Also Tabbouleh is by definition supposed to be primarily parsley.
