Traditional Middle Eastern tabbouleh is more about the mint and herbs than the bulgur grains. The longer this salad sets, the better it gets, so make it up to a day ahead.
Ingredients

- 3 tablespoons lemon juice
- ¼ teaspoon honey
- 1⅓ cups finely chopped pistachios
- 1 cup finely chopped parsley
- 1 small cucumber, chopped fine
- 1 medium tomato chopped fine
- 4 green onions chopped fine
- ½ cup mint chopped fine
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
Directions
