Traditional Mediterranean Tabbouleh is a refreshing, filling vegetarian salad with herbs and bulgur. This quick and easy one-bowl salad is a delicious, simple lunch or side that is also a perfect make-ahead dish.<\/p>\n

Tabbouleh Salad Recipe<\/em><\/strong><\/h2>\n

This Tabbouleh Salad is one of my favorite simple salad recipes since it\u2019s easy to put together in one bowl. It\u2019s full of bright parsley and mint flavor and packed with healthy ingredients.<\/p>\n

This salad recipe includes bulgur (cracked whole wheat), which makes a hearty base for a salad. Tabbouleh is filled with fresh herbs and combines chopped veggies then dressed with a bit of lemon juice and olive oil. You can always upgrade on the classic salad by making it with any herbs and greens, fresh vegetables like tomatoes, cucumbers, bell peppers, and also add some protein like chicken, shrimp, tuna, or chickpeas. Feel free to play around with the proportions of vegetables and bulgur and add herbs to your taste.<\/p>\n

Can Tabbouleh Salad be Made Ahead of Time and for Meal Prep<\/em><\/strong><\/h2>\n

You can make the salad ahead \u2014 it\u2019s perfect for meal prep and packing for lunch. If you want to make this salad a day or two before serving, chop the herbs and veggies, drain the tomatoes (you can also remove tomato seeds to prevent soggily), and store together with soaked and drained bulgur in an airtight container in the fridge. Drizzle with the dressing before serving.<\/p>\n

Leftover tabbouleh salad can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days.<\/p>\n
