This recipe is my twist on a classic Arabic salad and Lebanese tabbouleh, dishes I've been eating since I can remember. A super simple and colourful salad, seasonal and cost effective, can be diced together in no time. My twist grates in a little carrot, taking it's already healthy nutrient profile up a notch.

Perfect as a side, or a tasty base to be paired with crispy oven baked chickpeas, Za'atar pittas and homemade hummus; in keeping with the Middle Eastern theme.
