Crab Taboule Salad

This is where we start. A box of Taboule mix Wheat Salad.

Follow the instructions for cooking on the package that you buy. This one called for 1 cup of boiling water. Cover with plastic wrap and set aside for 30 minutes. 

I bought a jar of Roasted Red Peppers to make it easier on myself since I was at someone else's home when I made this.  I cut the peppers into bit sized pieces. I also sliced up 1 green onion a.k.a. spring onion or scallion.

Drained 1 can of Chickpeas or Garbanzo Beans and 1 small can of whole kernel Corn.

"Fluff"(stir) the Taboule with a fork. Add the roasted red pepper, green onion, chickpeas, and corn.

I added some dried Dill Weed, fresh Lemon Zest and 8 oz of Crab meat.  The dressing is 2 tablespoons Olive Oil and 4 tablespoons Balsamic Vinegar. I happen to have a Sicilian Lemon White Balsamic that tasted fabulous in this salad. Always... Salt & Pepper to taste.

All mixed up!  Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour then serve. Enjoy!!!
