A fragrant, fresh, and crunchy salad that takes its inspiration from the traditional tabbouleh that is a popular Levantine salad. Traditional tabbouleh is made with bulgur wheat and different regions use different proportions of it in the salad. Instead of bulgur, we decided to use grated cauliflower which made the dish even more refreshing. Cauliflower tabbouleh is also gluten-free.
In our home, this tabbouleh is very popular and it is the reason why we always make a large batch as it rarely makes it to the next day. This salad is very filling, healthy, and will not mess up your diet.
Unlike mutabbal (eggplant dip) and baba ghanoush that taste better the next day, tabbouleh is best eaten when fresh. We suggest making a batch that you can finish. If you wish, you can grate the cauliflower and chop parsley, mint, green onions, and cucumbers ahead of time then assemble and add the chopped tomatoes and the dressing when ready to serve.
You can serve tabbouleh as a side dish, scoop it onto lettuce leaves, or serve with falafel and pita bread. Whichever way you serve it, we are sure you will enjoy it.

I have a question, the cauliflower is either processed in the food processor or grated by hand raw , or is it cooked?
