Raw Tabouleh


I get this Tabouleh regularly at my local co-op and it is SO good! I like it even better the second day. Parsley is great for digestion and this is a great way to get a lot in your diet. The added bonus comes from the hempseeds which are full of EFA's and amino acids.

Ingredients:

2 cups tomatoes, seeded and diced
4 cups chopped parsley
1 cup chopped fresh mint
1/2 cup sliced green onion
1/4 cup raw hempseeds
6 Tbs. olive oil
4 Tbs. lemon juice
1 tsp. sea salt

Place the tomatoes in a colander and allow the liquid to drain off. ( I put mine in the colander then set it on a paper towel to absorb the moisture.) In a bowl, combine green onions, parsley and mint and toss together. In a separate bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice and sea salt and whisk. Pour over parsley mixture and mix well. Gently stir in the tomatoes and hemp seeds.
Yum!
