  1. I tweak it a bit: One I use fresh cherry or small tomatoes (if you're really picky, the brown tomatoes are amazing in this), and add chopped olives, either green or klamata. I just like the extra flavor of the olives in there as well as chickpeas together. I agree it's Tabbouleh on steroids, but hey, often in summer this IS dinner, so worthy way to go.
     
  2. Yum, yum! Another great bulgur salad for a hot summer's day -- kind of tabbouleh on steroids. Especially liked the combo of mint and parsley (some fresh spearmint from our garden, which was just about to bolt). I added a few finely chopped radishes for some crunch, which I think was a nice touch. Might make a tad more of the dressing next time, as it did get a bit dry after sitting in the 'fridge for a few hours. Will definitely make it again.
     
  3. This recipe is super simple and super healthy! Will absolutely make again and again. I'll try adding a couple teaspoons of orange juice as a variation.
     
  4. It was a great recipe as a matter of fact I'm going to make it again this week. I wasn't too sure about the mint at first since I'm not a big fan of mint but it was really good and needed it. All of the ingredients work nicely together and the mint wasn't too much at all. Really good. Thanks for sharing
     
  5. My husband and I loved this salad. The kids weren't too sure of the texture of bulgur but they'll come along! I didn't have fresh mint so I had to use bottled and had to substitute curly parsley (it's what I have in the garden). I cooked the bulgur in vegetable broth. We'll have this again! Thanks!
