Morning all!

I'm happy to report no hangover this morning, woooo! My feet are killing me though...I have 5 blisters that I've counted!

I'm also sat in Wetherspoon eating a breakfast wrap, not very diet friendly, lol! Back on it as soon as I'm home, and try to do the same as last week xx

Ok, I've just realised I'm losing the plot! I've had a bowl of mullerlight ice cream (which was rubbish ice cream full of crystals!) and I noticed myself blowing on a mouthful as if to cool it down, aaarrrggghhh!! I also caught myself doing it yesterday while eating a piece of tiffin at Costa *ahem* :eek:

I'm going round the bend! :eek:

I'm just posting my tabbouleh recipe to remind me what goes in it when I make it tomorrow!

Tabbouleh

Ingredients (serves 4 large portions)

200g bulgur wheat
200ml boiling water
1 red pepper, de-seeded and chopped
1 yellow or orange pepper, deseeded and chopped
350g ripe tomatoes, deseeded and chopped
5-6 spring onions, finely chopped
50g sultanas/raisins (7 syns)
5 tbsp chopped flat leaf parsley
5 tbsp chopped mint
A pinch of chilli flakes (optional)

Dressing:

4 tbsp extra virgin olive oil (24 syns or 4 x HexB)
1 tbsp tomato puree
4 tbsp lemon juice, and grated rind of the lemon
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp salt (although less would be fine!)
1 tsp ground pepper


Method:

1. Place the bulgur wheat in a large bowl. Cover with the boiling water, stir and cover with clingfilm. Allow the water to absorb for 20 minutes
2. Meanwhile chop all the vegetables and mix the dressing. After the water has absorbed, fluff up the bulgur wheat with a forl and stir in the dressiong.
3. Add all the vegetables and herbs and mix in well.
