TABOULI

• 1 cup dry bulgur wheat (Soak the tabouli before serving time. It needs to thoroughly marinate and chill.)
• 1 1/2 cups boiling water
• 1 tsp sea salt
• 1/4 cup fresh lemon
• 1/4 cup polyunsaturated olive oil
• 1 heaping tsp crushed fresh garlic
• 1/2 cup chopped scallions (include greens)
• 2 medium tomatoes, diced
• 1 cucumber, diced
• 1/2 tsp dried mint
• 1 packed cup freshly chopped parsley (at least) 
• Optional: chopped black olives (adds a delicious flavor).
• Freshly ground black pepper (bad for you) or cayenne pepper which is more healthy for you.

1. Combine bulgur, boiling water and salt in a bowl. Cover and let stand 15 - 20 minutes or until bulgur is chewable.

2. Add lemon juice, garlic, oil and mint and mix thoroughly. Refrigerate 2- 3 hours. (Most of the time I don't have time to do this and it still tastes great)

3. Just before serving add the vegetables and mix gently. Correct seasonings.
