Start by washing the cauliflower and cutting it into florets. Place the florets in a food processor and pulse until they resemble the texture of rice.
Transfer the cauliflower rice to a microwave-safe bowl and cover it with a lid or plastic wrap. Microwave on high for 3-4 minutes until tender but not mushy. Allow it to cool.
While the cauliflower is cooling, finely chop the parsley and mint leaves, discarding any thick stems.
Dice the tomatoes and cucumber into small, uniform cubes and set aside.
Slice the green onions thinly, including both green and white parts, and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cauliflower rice, parsley, mint, tomatoes, cucumber, and green onions.
In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper.
Pour the dressing over the tabouli and toss well to combine, ensuring all ingredients are evenly coated.
Adjust seasoning to taste and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to let the flavors meld before serving.
Serve cold as a refreshing salad or side dish.
