Tabouli is a classic Middle Eastern salad that is made with fresh herbs, tomatoes, and bulgur wheat. Marli's Tabouli is a twist on the traditional recipe, using soaked cracked wheat instead of bulgur and adding garlic and green onions for extra flavor. The result is a light and refreshing salad that is perfect for hot summer days. It's easy to make and can be served as a side dish or a light lunch.

Instructions

1.	In a large bowl, mix together the soaked cracked wheat, chopped green onions, and chopped fresh parsley.
2.	Add the diced tomatoes and crushed garlic to the bowl.
3.	In a separate bowl, whisk together the olive oil, apple cider vinegar (or lemon juice), salt, and pepper.
4.	Pour the dressing over the salad and toss to coat.
5.	Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.
