Bulgur salad with lemon/mint dressing

Bulgursalade met citroen/munt dressing

Eat as a meal salad or with grilled chicken, meat or fish or from the barbecue.

Preparation

  1. Place a pan on the heat source with plenty of water. Once it boils, add the bulgur and cook until tender. Then drain it and put it in the salad bowl.
    While this is cooking, cut and chop the rest of the ingredients and make the dressing.
  2. Add the vegetables and feta cheese to the bulgur, pour the dressing over it and mix. Season with salt and pepper to taste. The bulgur does not necessarily need to be cooled.
  3. Of course, you can make this your own with, for example, olives, cubes of (roasted) vegetables (bell pepper, zucchini) and cubes of goat cheese. The recipe is a guideline.
