50g/2oz (a good handful) fresh flat-leaf parsley

juice of 2 lemons
2 Tbs. olive oil
salt
freshly ground black pepper

Here is how you make Fresh Plum Tabbouleh (from Nigel Slater,:

3 WW's pts/servingCover the bulghur wheat with cold water and leave for 15 minutes. Chop the parsley and mint finely. Place in a salad bowl with the lemon juice, olive oil, salt and a few grinds of pepper. Chop or snip the onions into small pieces. Halve each plum or nectarine, pull out or cut out the stone, cut them into bite sized pieces and toss them into the herbs and dressing. Squeeze the water from the bulghur wheat with your hands. Drop the grains into the salad bowl and then mix gently with the plus/nectarines, and herbs. This is even better if you let it sit for an hour or two for flavors to blend and soak into the bulghur more. IT'S AMAZING though, and my all time summer favorite.Serving Size:?makes 5, 1 cup servingsNumber of Servings: 5Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user WARPED62.
