Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup fine bulgur wheat uncooked
  • 3 bunches fresh parsley tough stems removed (approximately 3-4 cups when chopped)

  3. Add the soaked and cooled bulgur, thinly sliced green onions, and diced tomatoes to the bowl of chopped herbs.
  4. In a small mixing bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Adjust seasoning to taste.
  5. Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients and mix well to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
