SNACKS
TABOULI
1 cup of bulgur (cracked wheat)
Put into cold water and let it soak up for 15 mins. Use whole wheat and it has more fiber.
3 bunches of parsley. (I prefer curly)
4-7 leaves of mint (go with 4 and add to taste)
juice of 3-4 lemons
2-3 green onions
1 tomato
2 tablespoons of olive oil
salt to taste
pack of whole wheat pita bread
Once the bulgur has soaked up the water, add the lemon juice, olive oil and salt.
Seperately, cut the leaves of the parsley.. use a food processor if possible.
Cut tomato and onions, and mint leaves very small, (also in food processor if possible).
. add bulgur to the parsley mix, refrigerate for an hour and scoop into pitas for a yummy almost fat free, healthy quick snack.
