Heart Smart Tabouli Recipe
Also known a Tipili in Latin America. This is a very heart healthy meal with ingredients known to lower cholesterol. I plan to make mine with dark salad greens, extra tomatoes, and just a little parsley.
3/4 cup boiling water
1/2 cup cracked wheat or fine bulgur
1/2 cup minced parsley
1/4 cup minced mint leaves
1/2 cup finely chopped green onion
1 tomato, diced
1 cucumber, seeded and diced
3 tablespoons olive oil OR oil substitute (fatfree Italian dressing, liquid from cooking chickpeas*, or reduced vegetable broth)
2 tablespoons lemon juice, or to taste
1 tsp. sea salt, or to taste
Pepper to taste
Pinch allspice
See here for recipe.
Here is another one, I'd like to try: Berberé Stew (Ethiopian Lentil Stew) This one uses up your summer tomatoes.
