Low Carb Tabbouleh Salad with Feta Cheese

18 ratings

This low carb salad is a take on a traditional tabbouleh.

Using cauliflower rice in place of bulgar wheat, this recipe also uses rich and tangy sun-dried tomatoes in place of regular tomatoes for an added depth of flavor.

Topped with salty feta cheese and complemented with the crunch of sunflower seeds, this makes a great low carb vegetarian main for 2 or as a side dish to share.

        I threw in some hemp hearts instead of someof the cauli, they are very low in carbs and give it that grain-like, nutty flavour.

          Delish! As good, if not better, than my old tabbouleh made with grain. Love it!

            I wanted to try this but when I look at the nutrition information I don’t consider 10 g for a salad to be low-carb. Especially when my daily allowance is only 19 carbs I don’t think I want to waste 10 and a salad. What makes this so high in carbs

              It has fiber and sugar, you'd subtract the fiber total from the carbs to give your net carbs

              the recipe is 2 portions. Even cutting in half for as single portion is very filling and only 5 carbs

            I loved this dish. It tasted much like traditional tabbouleh. I did not cook the cauliflower because of time and it was great.

              This is so delicious! I have made it twice in one week. Goes well with lamb and salmon. I omitted the sun dried tomatoes.

              Can I use just tomatoes?

                Don't know why not, but the oil probably counted in the fat on this.

              I really thought this was good. How much is one serving? one cup?

                Thank you for your feedback. The full recipe serves two people so one serving is half the recipe quantity. Hope this helps.
