About Tabouleh and quinoa salad

Tabouleh and Quinoa Salad is a vibrant, nutrient-packed dish inspired by Middle Eastern cuisine. Traditionally, tabouleh combines fresh parsley, mint, diced tomatoes, cucumber, and bulgur wheat, but this version substitutes quinoa for an extra protein boost, making it gluten-free and suitable for various dietary preferences. The salad is lightly dressed with olive oil and freshly squeezed lemon juice, delivering healthy fats and vitamin C. Quinoa offers a complete protein, essential amino acids, and fiber, while the abundance of herbs provides antioxidants and anti-inflammatory benefits. Wholesome vegetables like cucumber and tomato contribute hydration and vitamins such as A, C, and K. This salad is light, refreshing, and perfect as a side or a stand-alone meal, though individuals managing sodium intake might want to limit any added salt. Altogether, it’s a delicious way to enjoy nutrient-dense ingredients while exploring flavors from Middle Eastern traditions.
