Step 1

In a medium bowl, combine bulgar wheat with 1.5 cups of boiling water. Cover and let it sit for 20 minutes, or until the bulgar wheat absorbs the water and becomes tender.

Step 4

Add the chopped parsley, sorrel, mint, tomatoes, cucumber, and green onions to the cooled bulgar wheat.

Pour the dressing over the mixture and gently toss to combine all ingredients evenly.

Step 6

Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt or lemon juice if desired.
