Tabbouleh salad with pomegranate

paraxeno pirouni, the odd fork, odd fork

Everything started when the Odd Fork discovered a forgotten pack of bulgur wheat in the kitchen closet. It may seem strange, but the Odd Fork wasn't so familiar with bulgur until now. OK, it was time to fix this!
For a first try, what else could be better than a nice tabbouleh salad full of color and vitamins? Of course, it couldn't be made the usual, typical way, but according to the Odd Fork's different way!

If you want to try it too, just boil the bulgur in twice amount of water (e.g. 1 cup bulgur, 2 cups water) for 10 - 15 minutes, until it softens and there are no liquids, like rice. Meanwhile, peel a medium pomegranate and remove the seeds. Wash and chop some fresh parsley, wash and grate 2 medium carrots and mix with the bulgur adding also some chopped mini tomatoes and some black raisins. Add olive oil and lemon to taste. Add salt if desired and mix everything very well.

Ready! It was so delicious that the Odd Fork didn't add any salt at all. It proved to be ideal after the Odd Fork's evening workout, as a light dinner.
