This hemp seed tabbouleh (also spelled tabouli), is the perfect dish to make when you want some Mediterranean flavors. The fresh taste of parsley and mint, the juicy tomato, the crunch from the cucumber, all marinate perfectly together with the lemon juice. Hemp seeds replace the more traditional bulgur wheat and make this dish gluten free. It’s a great summer dish to eat by itself or as a side. Serve it alongside some hummus, veggies, and gluten free pita crackers for a great little appetizer.
Ingredients for Hemp Seed Tabbouleh
Serves 2
- 1 bunch of parsley chopped finely
- 1 cup of fresh mint leaves chopped finely
- 2 roma tomatoes chopped small
- 1 cucumber, peeled and chopped small
- 1 small red onion or 1/2 large red onion diced small
- 1/2 cup of manitoba harvest hemp seeds
- 2 lemons juiced
- 2 tbsp of olive oil
- ground pepper
- Himalayan pink salt or sea salt to taste
Directions:
- Wash and chop the parsley, mint, tomatoes, cucumber, and red onion according to above. Add it all to a large mixing bowl and stir together.
- Add in the hemp seeds, juice from two lemons, and olive oil. Stir well.
- Taste the dish prior to adding in salt & pepper. Lemons naturally enhance the flavor and add a salty taste. You won’t over salt by tasting it first. Once you add in the salt & pepper, stir well.
- Serve & Enjoy.
Riane’s Tidbits:
- This is a dish where you can add more tomatoes if want more tomatoes or more onion if you want more onion. You really can’t mess up this dish. Use my recipe as a guideline, but follow your taste buds.
- A traditional tabbouleh has all the ingredients chopped up very finely. I prefer it this way, as I think the flavors meld together nicer and I like the texture. However, if you like more crunch, leave the ingredients a bit larger like shown in the pictures.
- It taste delicious right after you make it, but the flavors meld together even more after it sits in the refrigerator for a few hours.
- If you don’t have hemp seeds, you still have a delicious recipe with just the other ingredients.
- Hemp seeds are high in protein and a good source of Omegas.
Grateful you are following along! xx Riane
