Bulgur Salad (Tabbouleh)

Bulgur Salad (Tabbouleh) by Bob Vincent

This is a different take on Tabbouleh. Many recipes include Mint with the Parsley. I have included Middle Eastern spices and Feta cheese instead which make for a more substantial salad. After assembly the salad is best if refrigerated for several hours so flavors can meld before service. Parsley is key, so use plenty. I have cut…

Chicken Fattoush Salad

Chicken Fattoush Salad by Bob Vincent

This is a different take on traditional Lebanese fattoush salad. I have added some additional ingredients in the form of chicken breasts, red bell pepper and feta cheese that make this a nice salad main course.

Bulgur and Bean Salad

Bulgur and Bean Salad by Salad Foodie

Bulgur is classified as a whole grain and makes a healthy and satisfying vegetarian meal or a side to grilled meats. We like the light nutty flavor it lends to recipes. I always keep #2 medium grind bulgur on hand whenever tabbouleh, pilaf or salads such as this beckon me. To enjoy the best array of flavors this salad has to offer,…

Persian spiced meatball. These are incredible. Ground Sumac flavors these meatballs with a citrus zing. Simple to make and so flavorful. They will be a hit anytime. Make the meat mixture ahead of time and refrigerate the meatballs after placing on skewers until they are cold. These are best if you can prepare the meat mixture a day…
