Quinoa Tabbouleh

Sometimes ya just need a bite of vegan gluten free dessert… and sometimes ya need the whole friggin' cake.

Recipe Summary Quinoa Tabbouleh

This tabouli recipe is different. Instead of using bulgur like traditional tabouli, this recipe uses quinoa. It is a grain that is available at health food stores. It looks and tastes better than bulgur. My husband and I both love this and neither of us is vegetarian. It's a great meal for a hot summer day. The longer it sits the better it tastes.
