Traditionally, tabbouleh is made with bulgur wheat. Too often, though, the salad you get is heavy on the bulgur, light on the vegetables, unlike the middle east where the vegetables are the star of the dish. Using quinoa instead of bulgur makes the tabbouleh extremely light and refreshing.

Method
Combine the spring onions, parsley, and mint in a large bowl, then add the cucumbers, tomatoes, and garlic, and mix together well.
Add the quinoa, mix in well, and dress with the olive oil and lemon. Season to taste serve on a few leaves of lettuce, with a spoonful of yogurt on the side.
Cooks tip: This is even better eaten the next day! You can also replace the quinoa with couscous- just prepare according to instructions on pack.
