Cauliflower Tabbouleh Recipe!
This cauliflower tabbouleh recipe is a vegetable packed twist on traditional tabbouleh salad. It’s great if you’re looking for a lower carb or lower calorie option!
I tried a cauliflower tabbouleh from Whole Foods and it was so good that I just had to try making my own! All you need is a head of cauliflower, onion, tomato, parsley, mint, and a handful of pantry staples. It’s not hard at all!
To make this recipe even easier, you can use pre-made cauliflower rice. It’s often sold in the produce section near the pre-packaged vegetables.
