Greek Salad with Bulgur Wheat
This dish is my combination of Middle Eastern tabbouleh and Greek salad. It’s got more bulgur than a traditional tabbouleh, but keeps the same bold use of parsley and mint. Cucumbers, tomatoes, olives, and feta cheese come from the Greek side of the table. Together, the flavors and textures make a great light lunch dish. Campari tomatoes are small hothouse-grown tomatoes. They have an intense tomato flavor year-round and the small size makes them ideal when you’re cooking for two.
