EatingWell.com Chicken breasts on the grill have a smoky flavor that's enhanced with an easy spice rub. We chose flat-leaf parsley in this salad because it has a stronger herbal taste than its sometimes-bitter curly counterpart. TIP: Tip: Swapping riced cauliflower for bulgur in this tabbouleh amps the veggie servings. If you go for frozen, first cook it according to package directions, then let it cool and pat it dry before using.
