This salad reminds me of the Lebanese *Tabule* certainly very tasty and will be put in soon

Very tasty salad happened! I liked that the couscous soak in lemon juice. Popromenih proportions, but I followed the instructions exactly. I added chicken and get a great lunch.

I am very glad that you liked the salad, Gerry :) We sure every time we change something, tolerate variations recipe :) In the summer really is wonderfully light main meal - we often combine it with grilled halloumi cheese.
