Quinoa Tabouli

It's all Greek to me... at least for this weekend!  And I'm hoping that some English teachers are reading this post so the allusion is noticed ;)

I had vegetables left over from the Greek salad so I decided to try to make tabouli; instead of bulgar, I used quinoa.  I like tabouli and I really liked the quinoa substitution but I don't think it had much flavor.. which is obviously something that can be fixed next time.

I used about a cup of cherry tomatoes, a cup of cucumbers, 2/3 cup green peppers, 1/4 cup green onions, 1/2 cup parsley and a 1/2 cup cooked quinoa.


I used some olive oil, half of a juiced lemon, some cumin, dill, garlic salt & pepper as the sauce.  I don't think I used enough dressing & I don't think I had enough seasonings.  All in all, I think it's a decent recipe (and is healthier than traditional tabouli) but could use more flavor.
