Instructions
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.
Once the bulgar wheat is ready, fluff it with a fork and transfer it to a large mixing bowl. Allow it to cool to room temperature.
In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper to make the dressing.
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.
Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt or lemon juice if desired.
Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve chilled or at room temperature as a light and refreshing side dish or salad.
