Best Cracked Wheat And Mint Salad Recipes
MEDITERRANEAN CRACKED WHEAT SALAD
This is a recipe I found while looking for a good Tabbouleh recipe. I'm always altering it by adding sun dried tomatoes, using different olives etc and it always comes out fantastic. The original recipe calls for water but I prefer vegetable or chicken stock. (Cooking time includes time to heat broth and roast pepper).
