Think of this as a more nutrient-dense tabbouleh salad with staying power, thanks to the addition of extra amounts of protein from chickpeas and white beans. It also gains more complexity with freekeh in place of bulgur. Made from young green wheat that’s been roasted, this whole grain has a toasty, nutty flavour profile and is higher in protein than most other grains. You’ll find freekeh at grocers specializing in Middle Eastern foods.

In a pickle
This method of quick pickling dried fruit, such as golden raisins, is a way to infuse dishes like grain-based salads with a sweet-vinegary pop of flavour. Also try it with dried apricots, cherries, and blueberries. [/callout]
