Method

1

Rinse the quinoa thoroughly and cook according to package directions. Let cool.

2

Prepare the mint-infused oil: Gently heat the olive oil in a small saucepan over low heat. Add the mint leaves and let them steep for about 15-20 minutes, being careful not to let the oil simmer or boil. Remove from heat and let cool completely. Strain the oil, discarding the mint leaves.

3

Soak the fine bulgur in hot water for about 15 minutes, or until softened. Drain well, pressing out any excess water.

4

Dice the tomatoes and cucumber into small, even pieces. Finely chop the parsley and green onions.

5

In a large bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, softened bulgur, diced tomatoes, cucumber, parsley, and green onions.

6

Pour the mint-infused oil and lemon juice over the salad. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

7

Toss everything together gently to combine. Let the tabbouleh sit for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

8

Serve chilled and enjoy!
