Quinoa Tabbouleh Salad
Tabbouleh (or Tabouli) is so refreshing and is perfect for a summer salad. Quinoa grains contain essential amino acids like lysine and good quantities of calcium, phosphorus, and iron. As you will see, I mix the vegetables first and then add the quinoa so that the quinoa doesn’t absorb all the dressing. You’ll love this!
Preparation Time: 30 MinutesIngredients
- 2/3 cup cooked quinoa
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- Zest of one lemon
- 1 cucumber, diced
- 10 cherry tomatoes cut into fours
- 2 tsp parsley, chopped
- 1 avocado, cut into cubes
- Juice of one lemon
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- (Smoked) sea salt
Preparation
Mix together the garlic, lemon juice and zest, cucumber, tomatoes, avocado, parsley and salt in a salad bowl.
Pour the quinoa and mix with the vegetables.
