Step 1
Measure out 1 cup bulgur into a bowl big enough to hold the finished salad.
Step 2
Add 1 cup boiling water, stir, and let bulgur soak until all the water is absorbed. (The recipe said 30 minutes, but I soaked the bulgur about 80 minutes, which made it nice and fluffy.)
Step 3
While bulgur soaks, zest one lemon and put zest into a small bowl.
Step 4
Squeeze lemon juice into bowl, adding more if needed to make 3 T lemon juice.
Step 5
Add finely minced garlic, then whisk in 3 T olive oil.
Step 6
When bulgur has absorbed all the water, stir in this dressing and let marinate while you chop herbs and veggies.
Step 7
Wash parsley and mint and spin dry or dry with paper towels.
Step 8
Chop herbs and slice green onions and stir into bulgur.
Step 9
Peel cucumbers and remove seeds if the seeds are big. (I had garden cucumbers, so I left the seeds in.)
Step 10
Dice cucumbers and tomatoes into pieces about 1/2 inch, then gently stir into salad.
Step 11
Season to taste with salt and fresh ground black pepper and serve.
