Tabbouleh

Great healthy salad. Look for bulgar in the health food aisle of most supermarkets.

1 C medium-grind bulgur
coarse salt & pepper
6 plum tomatoes, cored, seeded and diced
1 English (seedless) cucumber, seeded and diced
1 C fresh basil cut up
1/2 C cilantro cut up
1/4 c. fresh lemon juice (from about 2 lemons)
2 T. extra virgin olive oil
1 C crumbled feta cheese



1. In a medium bowl, mix bulgur with 1/2 t. salt and 2 c. boiling water. Cover bowl, and let sit until bulgur is tender (but still slightly chewy), about 30 minutes. Remove remaining liquid.

2. Add tomatoes, cucumber, basil, cilantro, lemon juice, and oil; season with salt and pepper, toss to combine. Serve immediately, or cover and refrigerate up to 3 days
