Bulgar Salad with Fresh Tomatoes
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
  1. 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.
  2. 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.
