This fresh and filling salad is a delicious and healthy lunch idea.

Ingredients

Burghul, dry

80 g, (see note)

Lemon juice

2 tbs

Olive oil

1 tbs

Dried cranberries

35 g

Lebanese cucumber

1 medium, deseeded, finely chopped

Fresh flat-leaf parsley

1¼ cup(s), finely chopped

Cherry tomatoes

100 g, halved

Green shallot(s)

1 individual, thinly sliced

Smoked skinless 97% fat-free chicken breast

300 g, shredded

Reduced-fat hummus

½ cup(s)

Lebanese bread

150 g, (2 x 75g each)

Instructions

  1. Place burghul in a heatproof bowl. Add 1 cup (250ml) boiling water. Cover and set aside for 10 minutes or until softened. Drain. Return to bowl.
  2. Add juice, oil, cranberries, cucumber, parsley, tomatoes, shallots and chicken to burghul. Toss to combine.
  3. Place 2 lettuce leaves in each serving bowl. Fill with chicken tabouli. Serve with hommus and toasted bread.

Notes

Burghul is cracked wheat and is sold in the health-food section of the supermarket. We used fine-ground burghul in this recipe. If you use coarse-ground burghul, you will need to soak it for 20 minutes.
