Spelt Tabbouleh with Jalapeño Vinaigrette
Report
A twist on the traditional dish, spelt gives this tabbouleh an added chewy texture that pairs perfection with the slightly spicy jalapeño vinaigrette.

Ingredients
- 6 cups fresh parsley
- 1 ½ cups cooked spelt (prepared according to package instructions)
- 2 cups cherry tomatoes (halved)
- 5 scallions (minced)
- ½ cup fresh mint (minced)
Jalapeño Vinaigrette
- 1 Jalapeño (stemmed and seeded)
- ⅓ cup lemon juice
- 1 ½ teaspoons salt
- ⅓ cup extra virgin olive oil
Instructions
- Place parsley in a food processor and pulse until finely minced, careful not to puree.
- Remove parsley from the food processor and place in a large bowl. Stir in cooked spelt, cherry tomatoes, scallions and fresh mint.
- To prepare vinaigrette, add jalapeño, lemon juice and salt to the food processor and pulse until incorporated, 30-60 seconds. With the machine on high, slowly add olive oil and continue processing until vinaigrette is emulsified.
- Pour jalapeño vinaigrette over the tabbouleh and toss well. Check for seasoning and adjust accordingly.
Notes
- Can be stored in an air-tight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Over time, spelt will absorb the vinaigrette so you may wish to add additional lemon juice, olive oil or salt before serving.
- For a mild salad, eliminate the jalapeño or remove all of the stems and seeds which is where the heat lives.
- For a spicier salad, leave the seeds and/or add a second jalapeño.
