Restaurant style tabouli made simple

Tabouli, also spelled Tabbouleh, is a Lebanese salad that is traditionally made with bulgur wheat, parsley, mint, tomatoes, onions, lemon juice, and olive oil. Its exact origins are uncertain, but it is believed to have originated in the mountains of Lebanon near the Syrian border.
Tabouli has been a popular dish in the Levant region for centuries and was likely made with different variations of ingredients depending on the season and availability. In the 20th century, the dish became more widely known and appreciated outside of the Middle East, and it is now a popular dish in many countries around the world!
Tabouli has also undergone some changes over time. Some modern versions may include ingredients like cucumber, lettuce, or even quinoa instead of bulgur wheat. Despite these variations, the dish has remained a staple in Lebanese cuisine and continues to be enjoyed by many people around the world.
