This vibrant cauliflower rice tabbouleh offers a refreshing, grain-free twist on the classic Levantine salad. By swapping traditional bulgur wheat for light, riced cauliflower, this vegan dish remains incredibly satisfying while feeling much lighter on the palate. The base is packed with an abundance of flat-leaf parsley and fresh mint, providing a burst of herbal flavour that balances perfectly with the zesty lemon dressing and subtle heat from the red pepper flakes.
Ideal as a nutritious lunch or a colourful side dish for a summer barbecue, this salad is as versatile as it is healthy. The combination of crisp cucumber and juicy cherry tomatoes adds a wonderful texture that complements the tender cauliflower. You can even prepare the cauliflower 'rice' up to three days in advance, making this an excellent choice for stress-free meal prepping or entertaining.
