Cracked Wheat And Mint Salad Recipes

MEDITERRANEAN CRACKED WHEAT SALAD

Mediterranean Cracked Wheat Salad image

This is a recipe I found while looking for a good Tabbouleh recipe. I'm always altering it by adding sun dried tomatoes, using different olives etc and it always comes out fantastic. The original recipe calls for water but I prefer vegetable or chicken stock. (Cooking time includes time to heat broth and roast pepper).

To soak bulgur, put it in a large heatproof bowl and cover with 1/2 cup boiling water. Stir to combine and let it sit for 30 minutes to absorb the water and soften. Fluff with a fork.
Finely mince the parsley. You can do this with a knife, or in a food processor. Try to get it as fine and even as you can.
