  • Total Time: 12 minutes

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 medium head of cauliflower (about 1 pound), coarsely chopped
  • 5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
  • Salt/Pepper as desired
  • 1/4 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 cups (packed) flat-leaf parsley leaves with tender stems
  • 1/2 cup fresh dill
  • 1 cup (packed) mint leaves
  • 2 scallions, white and pale-green parts only, sliced
  • 2 garlic cloves, coarsely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
  • 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1/2 medium english cucumber (about 8 1/2″ long), cut into 1/4″ pieces
  • 1 1/2 cups cherry tomatoes, quartered

Instructions

  1. Coarsely grate the cauliflower in a food processor.
  2. Throw the cauliflower rice onto a pan with 1 tbs oil, top with salt, pepper, and cumin. I don’t recommend frozen as it will add too much moisture to the dish.
  3. Cook until softened, 5-7 minutes. Don’t over cook. Remove from heat and place in the fridge to cool.
  4. In a food processor pulse the parsley, mint, dill, scallions, garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, 3/4 tsp. salt, and remaining oil until herbs are coarsely chopped.
  5. Transfer to a large bowl  with the cauliflower, cucumber, tomatoes and gently toss to coat. Season with additional salt, if necessary.

Notes

*If you’d like to adhere to the texture of the more classic Tabouli you can finely chop the tomatoes and cucumber
