Extra flavour: I like to cook my bulgur in chicken stock for extra flavor. This is just an option, you can also cook it in water.
Advanced level preparation: You can cook the bulgur a day before making the salad, allowing it to cool completely by placing it in the refrigerator overnight.
Crunch factor: Add a mixture of sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds or roasted pistachios for a nice crunch and healthy fats.
Absolutely! Quinoa is a great substitute that can be cooked according to the package directions.
Store salad and dressing separately in airtight containers. Add dressing just before serving to keep vegetables crisp.

- Cook your bulgur by mixing your bulgur with your chicken stock. Add a pinch of salt if necessary. Bring it to a boil. Once boiling, cover, reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes, until no liquid remains. Stir it with a fork and let it cool completely.
- Place your herbs in your measuring cup as whole leaves. Once measured, chop finely.

- In a large bowl, combine the bludger, chickpeas, red onion, parsley, mint, feta and pistachios.
Dressing instructions:
