Shrimp & Feta Tabbouleh image

I saw this recipe in a Women's Health magazine, tried it, and absolutely fell in love with it. It's the perfect summer salad - super healthy, not at all heavy and really fills you up. It says that its 4 portions but i think it's actually only 3, especially if you're eating it as a main dish. Try it, i promise you'll love it!
