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.

I’m sorry I didn’t take a prettier picture. I kept meaning to get out my “real” camera, but then I’d get so distracted by eating…

I seriously can’t wait to make this again. I made it on Sunday and packed it as part of my lunch on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday.
5 minute plank!?!? So impressed. You go girl!
I love the sound of that Tabbouleh recipe!
Five minutes? You’re a freakin champ!
You must have a killer core, that is seriously impressive! On Monday, I did 5 minutes of speed work in a freestyle spin class, which felt like an eternity. I kept pace the entire time so I’m pretty pleased with myself for that one.
That’s awesome! I’m NOT good at spinning!!! haha. I like it, because the class totally pumps you up, but it’s definitely not my best area!
that cauliflower recipe DOES look really good! you need to email Meg at A Dash of Meg about your proud moment – that’s AWESOME!! Each Friday she does a “High Five Friday” and gives shoutouts to everyone’s accomplishments… She also encourages others to link up to the post and this post would be perfect! Give it a looksie! ๐
Oh perfect!! Thanks for letting me know! I’m totally going to check it out!
a 5 minute plank is very, very impressive. way to go!
Planks are SO mental. You’re right! I couldn’t do much of any yesterday! But I DID run my three miles last night after attempting on the treadmill and only making it 1.5 miles. I have to say, the wind in your face sure does help this heat when running!
Nice job!!! I heard you were doing the marathon training!!! That’s so awesome! ๐
Wow 5 MINUTES!! THat is incredible, you definitely deserve to be proud! This recipe sounds delicious, and perfect because I’m not a fan of olives either! ๐
Holy crap Liz, 5 minutes for a plank?! I am seriously impressed! The longest I have ever held one is 3 minutes and I was shaking a whole lot by that time. You are amazing woman ๐ oh and this recipe is a winner too, I don’t care for olives either so it’s even better that way!
Holy crap, FIVE MINUTES?!?! That’s awesome. My most recent proud moment was when I went for a run last night. I had sulked about running for three days because I had a slow run on Sunday, but last night I finally got out there and ran it four minutes faster.
Oh my gosh that’s awesome! I always try to remind myself not to get discouraged by a bad run. They happen, but it just means you can kick butt next time!
