Tabbouleh - a Mediterranean classic that is both refreshing and healthy salad. However, in its original version it's not suitable for celiac patients nor diabetics, as bulgur wheat contains gluten and raises sugar blood levels. Here, I've replaced it with my beloved millet, on which I have elaborated elsewhere, added roasted almonds and pickled lemon in addition to the usual greens. A wonderful salad to accompany a spring meal. What's inside? 1 cup millet A bunch of parsley

I wrote about the wonderfulness of this pulse in another recipe. This ultimate very green salad that both cleanse and nurtures in terms of protein, complex carbohydrates, minerals and vitamins. Like its little sisters (mung beans, black lentils), it contributes to lowering triglycerides and cholesterol , diabetes and may contribute to weight loss . I've also added celery and fennel which contribute to cleansing (=detox, for those looking for an accessible spring cleaning). W
