bulgur, tomatoes, cucumbers, feta

 Needing to use up some small tomatoes and cucumbers, and looking in my cupboard to see plenty of bulgur wheat, I made do with what I had and it was very tasty.  Ideas from here

Ingredients

  • 1 cup bulgur wheat
  • tomatoes (about 15 small)
  • cucumbers (3 small-medium) 
  • small amount of onion sliced thin
  • vinegar
  • olive oil
  • lemon juice
  • feta (about 5 oz)
  • fresh basil  (1/2 bunch left over)
  • jar garbanzos, drained and rinsed  

Bring 2 cups water to boil, cook bulgur wheat for about 10 minutes.  Allow to cool.

Thinly slice a small amount of onion and soak in vinegar for about 10 minutes.

Chop tomatoes and cucumbers.  Once bulgur is cooled, mix them in.  Add about 2 T olive oil, 2 T lemon juice, and 1/2 tsp dried oregano.   Drain onions, add them.  Chop feta and basil, add. Drain and rinse garbanzos, add.  Mix well, refrigerate.
