Cauliflower Tabbouleh

Share on FacebookShare on PinterestShare on Twitter

Ingredients

 

1/2 medium head of cauliflower (about 1 pound), coarsely chopped
5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
1 teaspoon (or more) kosher salt, divided
2 cups (packed) flat-leaf parsley leaves with tender stems
1 cup (packed) mint leaves
2 scallions, white and pale-green parts only, sliced
1 garlic clove, coarsely chopped
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/2 medium cucumber (about 8 1/2″ long), cut into 1/4″ pieces
6 ounces cherry tomatoes, quartered

Directions

Grate cauliflower with the coarse grater disk on a food processor or the largest holes on a box grater until rice-like in texture is achieved.   Transfer to a large, microwave-safe bowl and toss with 1 Tbsp. oil and 1/4 tsp. salt. Cover and microwave on high 3 minutes. Spread cauliflower “rice” on a rimmed baking sheet to cool.  This cauliflower “rice” can be made up to 3 days ahead.  Keep refrigerated in a resealable container.  Or purchase pre-“riced” cauliflower in the prepared produce or frozen section of your favorite market.
Wipe out food processor, if necessary, and fit with chopping blade. Pulse parsley, mint, scallions, garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, 3/4 tsp. salt, and remaining 1/4 cup oil until herbs are coarsely chopped. Transfer to a large bowl and stir in red pepper flakes. Add cauliflower, cucumber, and tomatoes and gently toss to coat. Season with additional salt, if necessary.

Enjoy!!!
