Directions

1

In a large bowl, pour the boiling water over the bulgur. Cover tightly and set aside 20 - 30 minutes. In separate bowl, stir together 1/3-cup lemon juice, garlic, parsley, scallions, tomatoes and chickpeas. When the bulgur has absorbed all the water, stir it with a fork to fluff the grains. Toss the lemon-vegetable mixture with the bulgur and add salt & pepper & mint to taste.

Tabouli tastes better after having sat 30 minutes to 2 hours either refrigerated or at room temperature to blend the flavors. Add more lemon juice to taste just before serving.
