Salad Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Bulgur

    In a medium bowl, combine the bulgur wheat and water. Cover with plastic wrap and let it sit for about 30 minutes, or until the bulgur is tender and the water is absorbed.

  2. 2

    Combine the Vegetables

    In a large mixing bowl, add the diced tomatoes, cucumber, parsley, mint, and red onion. Mix well to combine.

  3. 3

    Add Bulgur and Dress

    Once the bulgur is ready, fluff it with a fork and add it to the vegetable mixture. Drizzle with olive oil and lemon juice, then season with salt and black pepper. Toss gently to combine.

  4. 4

    Chill and Serve

    Cover the salad and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Serve chilled.
