Chicken Tabouli (Tabbouleh) image

You will love this! It's the perfect recipe for a luncheon. Also a good make-ahead recipe for the week. Since I like keeping the seeds in the tomatoes and cukes, I just make the salad without them, then dice them fresh and mix them in each time I serve it. You may want to seed them if you throw it all together at once. I got this from a friend, but I think it came from cooking light or southern living. Serve with bread/butter.

I'm not a huge fan of tabbouleh, but this recipe was actually pretty good. The chicken was tender and flavorful, and the dressing was light and refreshing.

The chicken tabbouleh was a bit too dry for my taste, but the flavors were still good. I think I'll add some extra dressing next time.
