Ingredients
- 3 bunches fresh parsley finely minced (about 2 cups)
- 3 large tomatoes finely chopped
- 1 small onion finely chopped
- 5 fresh mint leaves minced
- ¼ cup bulgur
- ¼ cup olive oil
- ¼ cup fresh lemon juice
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
Instructions
- Prepare the bulgur according to the directions on the package, ensuring it softens fully but retains a slight bite. Once cooked, drain any excess liquid and allow it to cool completely.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooled bulgur with the minced parsley, tomatoes, onion, and mint leaves. Drizzle in the olive oil and lemon juice, then season with salt, black pepper, and a touch of cayenne for gentle heat. Toss everything together until evenly coated and vibrant.
- For best flavor, cover and chill the salad for about 30 minutes before serving. Serve cold or at room temperature for a refreshing, herb-packed dish that pairs beautifully with grilled meats or Mediterranean spreads.
