Servings

Ingredients

2 Roma tomatoes
1 head cauliflower (roughly 2 cups cauliflower florets)
1 head parsley
2 lemons
2 cloves garlic minced
2 teaspoons sea salt
1/2 teaspoon cumin

Instructions

On the cutting board, dice Roma tomatoes and add to mid-sized mixing bowl.

Chop the parsley fine and add to the bowl of mix.
Juice the lemons and add the juice into the bowl**.

Recipe Notes

*Variation: For softer cauliflower pieces, blanch the cauliflower before chopping into rice sized pieces, by cooking in boiling water for 3 minutes. Strain and chill before chopping and adding to the recipe.

** Pro Chef Tip: To quickly and easily juice lemons follow these steps: 1) Roll back and forth on a cutting board to soften the citrus, 2) Cut in half, 3) Insert a fork inside the citrus in the center and twist the fork while squeezing your hand over the bowl, repeat until all the juice is expressed.

Cauliflower makes a perfect plant powered base for this grain free snack. The fresh herbs in tabouli provide beneficial minerals like calcium, iron and potassium while the cauliflower and citrus work together to support an anti-inflammatory diet.

I recommend to make this one day before serving as the flavors blend together even more as this dish sits in the refrigerator. This dish is a great weekly add in that will stay fresh for up to 7 days.

This dish is easily enjoyed as a vegetable side dish along side your choice of protein, as a snack with some baked chips, or as a filling on fresh lettuce cups.
