Tips

This salad is great many ways. I have used in Romaine leaves as a wrap with shredded carrots and broccoli slaw, with tuna for some added protein, and with a little Greek yogurt in the dressing for something more creamy.


Directions

Place bulghar in a bowl, and cover with water. Allow to sit for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
In another bowl, mix tomatoes, scallions, cucumber, parsley, and mint leaves.
To make dressing, mix Olive oil, vinegar, lemon juice, cumin, salt, and pepper.
Drain bulghar and squeeze out excess water. Add to vegetables and toss. Pour dressing over salad and toss to coat.
Cover and refrigerate for 2-4 hours to allow flavors to meld.
