This tabbouleh was a bit too lemony for my taste, but otherwise it was good. I would recommend using less lemon juice next time.

I love tabbouleh and this recipe did not disappoint! The flavors were fresh and bright, and the couscous was cooked perfectly. I will definitely be making this again.

This was my first time making tabbouleh and it was a success! The recipe was easy to follow and the dish was delicious. I served it as a side dish with grilled chicken and it was perfect.

The tabbouleh turned out great! It was easy to make and the flavors were delicious. I used quinoa instead of couscous and it worked well.

This tabbouleh was a refreshing and flavorful side dish! The combination of couscous, parsley, tomatoes, and mint was perfect, and the lemon-tahini dressing added the perfect tang. I will definitely be making this again!
