Inspired by the classic Middle Eastern dish, this tabbouleh skips the bulgur wheat and uses cauliflower instead. The result is an easy, fresh side dish that’s packed with veggies and herbs. It keeps well in the fridge for a few days and is excellent for taking to your next summer picnic or potluck.
