Buckwheat Tabbouleh with Chard, Chickpeas, and Creamy Garlic Dressing

The nutty flavor and chewy texture of buckwheat groats make an excellent substitute for bulgur wheat in this gluten-free tabbouleh, which gets extra heft from canned (or home-cooked) chickpeas. Parsley is more than just a garnish in tabbouleh; it’s a key ingredient that brings herbaceous notes to every bite. Finely sliced Swiss chard adds even more green goodness here. Be sure to use both the leaves and stems of the chard for color and crunch. This salad is especially pretty if you use more than one color of chard. Tangy tomatoes, tart lemon juice, and spicy radishes add bright flavor, and a creamy silken tofu-garlic dressing ties it all together. This hearty buckwheat tabbouleh is substantial enough to eat as a meal on its own or serve as a side with falafel, a chunk of whole grain bread, or grilled veggies. 

Tips:

Is tabbouleh gluten-free? Traditionally, tabbouleh is made with bulgur wheat and is not gluten-free; however, this buckwheat tabbouleh is made from buckwheat groats, which are naturally gluten-free.
