New-Age Tabbouleh Salad - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    Salad
    4 cups cooked brown rice, cooled
    1 1/2 cups zucchini, seeded and small dice
    1 1/2 cups English cucumbers, seeded and small dice
    20 -25 grape tomatoes, halved (quartered, if large or cherry tomatoes)
    1 medium purple onion, small dice
    1 cup parsley, packed and minced
    1/2 cup cilantro, packed and minced
    1/2 cup spearmint, packed and minced
    Dressing
    1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
    1/2 cup olive oil
    2 teaspoons yellow mustard
    1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
    salt and pepper, to taste
Preparation
    Combine all salad ingredients in a large, resealable bowl.
    Whisk together dressing ingredients, adding salt and pepper to taste. Toss salad with dressing. Taste salad (try to get a little of everything on your fork), add a little more lemon, if necessary. Adjust seasoning.
    Refrigerate at least 2-3 hours before serving to allow flavours to mingle and love each other. Mix salad well before serving to redistribute dressing. :-).
