Makes 4-6 servings

Ingredients

1 cup tomato juice
1 cup vegetable broth
1 chicken flavoured bouillon cube
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon olive oil
1 cup dry bulgar
Juice of 1 lemon
1/2 teaspoon hot red pepper paste
1 clove garlic, minced
1 large tomato, seeded and diced
2 tablespoons fresh chopped parsley
salt
pepper

Directions

In a medium sized pot, bring tomato juice, broth, bouillon and 1 teaspoon olive oil to a simmer over high heat. Turn off the heat and stir in the bulgar or couscous. Put the lid on and leave it alone for 20 minutes then fluff with a fork.
Transfer the bulgar to a bowl and (while it's still warm) gently toss in the rest of the ingredients including the other 1 tablespoon of oil with the fork. Cover and refrigerate until cooled and ready to serve.
