===Variations===
I would probably add a [[Chilli|chilli]] or two to the [[Salad|salad]].

I used vegetable stock instead of water, added 3 cloves of crushed garlic to the wheat at the soaking stage so the harshness of raw garlic was removed.
I found some nice fresh [[sorrel]] leaves whilst [[herb]]-hunting in the garden so added those too along with a spare tomato. A very nice and colourful salad which will be made again. --[[User:Chef|Chef]] 07:36, 6 March 2011 (GMT)
===Chef's notes===
When making this as a main meal for two people, I used 200g of bulgur wheat, vegetables as listed and an unmeasured quantity of cheese and there was very little left over. I would be tempted to increase the amount of bulgur wheat if making this for four people.
