Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Bulgur

    In a large bowl, combine the bulgur wheat and hot water. Cover and let it sit for about 15-20 minutes, or until the bulgur is tender and has absorbed the water.

    Combine Ingredients

    Once the bulgur is ready, fluff it with a fork. Add the diced cucumber, tomato, red onion, and chopped parsley to the bulgur.

  3. 3

    Dress the Salad

    In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Pour this dressing over the bulgur mixture and toss gently to combine.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve chilled or at room temperature as a refreshing salad.
