Cooking Instructions
1.
Place
Bulgur Wheat (1 cup)
in a large bowl. Cover with cold water. Let stand for one hour. Drain in a fine-mesh sieve or use a pot cover to hold back the bulgur while you drain the water into the sink. Set aside.
2.

Red Onion (1)
. Mince the white and light green portion of the
Scallions (1 bunch)
. Mince the
Fresh Chives (1 bunch)
. Small dice the
English Cucumber (1)
. Halve or quarter the
Cherry Tomatoes (1 cup)
depending on their size. Mince the
Fresh Parsley (1 bunch)
. Mince the
Fresh Mint (4 Tbsp)
.
3.
Spread the bulgur out into a large bowl. Season evenly with
Salt (to taste)
(I used 1 tsp) and
Freshly Ground Black Pepper (to taste)
. Add all of the chopped vegetables and minced herbs. Pour in the
Olive Oil (4 Tbsp)
and juice from the
Lemons (2)
. Toss well. Taste and adjust seasoning as necessary.
4.
Serve and enjoy!
Author's Notes
As always, use the amounts of veggies/herbs as a guide. I like a whole grain salad filled with vegetables and herbs, but add as many or as few as you would like.
