Ingredients Nutrition
- 2⁄3 cup quinoa, uncooked
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

- 3. Add the zucchini/cucumber, tomatoes, parsley, mint, and scallions to the quinoa. Gently toss to combine all ingredients.
- 4. Drizzle the lemon/olive oil mixture over the tabbouleh. Gently toss to ensure the dressing is distributed evenly.
