1
Prepare quinoa as per package directions or if using bulgur wheat, soften bulgur by soaking one hour in water, then drain well and press out the excess water.
2
Mix quinoa (or bulgur*), onions, salt and pepper together, crushing onion juice into quinoa (or bulgur) with fingers.
3
Add parsley, mint, oil, lemon juice, tomato and salt and pepper. Mix thoroughly, adding more lemon juice (to taste). Adjust salt to taste. *Bulgur wheat is traditionally used to make this dish, however, it is not gluten-free (GF), I prefer to use quinoa which is GF.
