From the kitchen of Ann Marie Barkwell. Tabouli
originated in Syria and Lebanon. It is very popular in
the Middle East. The Lebanese use more parsley
than bulgur wheat. Traditionally served with Romaine
lettuce, it can be eaten chilled or at room
temperature. I like it best after it sets a few hours.

Notes:
I put a flour tortilla in the toaster, cut it into wedges then
top with tabouli.

I like tabouli in a pita with hummus.
