Ingredients
- 3 cups Cauliflower rice (fresh or frozen)
- 1 large English cucumber
- 2 medium Tomatoes
- 1 cup Fresh parsley leaves
- 0.5 cup Fresh mint leaves
- 3 stalks Green onions
- 0.25 cup Olive oil
- 0.25 cup Lemon juice
- 1 clove Garlic (minced)
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the cauliflower rice. Cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it becomes tender but not mushy. Remove from heat and allow it to cool completely.
Step 2
Dice the cucumber and tomatoes into small, uniform pieces. Remove the seeds, if desired, to reduce excess moisture.
Step 3
Chop the parsley and mint leaves finely. Trim and thinly slice the green onions.
Step 4
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooled cauliflower rice, diced cucumber, tomatoes, parsley, mint, and green onions.
Step 5
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper to prepare the dressing.
Step 6
Pour the dressing over the taboule mixture and toss well to combine.
Step 7
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed with additional salt, pepper, or a squeeze of lemon juice.
Step 8
Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
