Ingredients

• 1 medium head Cauliflower
• 1.5 cups Cherry tomatoes
• 1 medium Cucumber
• 1 bunch Fresh parsley
• 0.5 bunch Fresh mint
• 4 stalks Green onions (scallions)
• 0.25 cup Lemon juice
• 0.25 cup Olive oil
• 1 clove Garlic
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Begin by rinsing the cauliflower and breaking it into florets. Place the florets in a food processor and pulse until it achieves a rice-like consistency. Be careful not to over-process.

Step 2

In a large skillet, heat the cauliflower rice over medium heat for about 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally. You only want to lightly cook it to remove excess moisture. Once done, set aside to cool.

Step 3

Dice the cherry tomatoes into small pieces. Peel and chop the cucumber into small cubes.

Step 4

Finely chop the parsley, discarding any thick stems. Do the same with the fresh mint.

Step 5

Thinly slice the green onions (scallions).

Step 6

In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.

Step 7

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooled cauliflower rice, tomatoes, cucumber, parsley, mint, and green onions.

Step 8

Pour the dressing over the mixture and gently toss to combine.

Step 9

Taste the tabouleh and adjust the seasoning with additional salt, pepper, or lemon juice as desired.

Step 10

Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator for 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld. Enjoy as a refreshing side dish or a light main course.
