Ingredients:
For the Salad

1 cup bulgur wheat
2 cups boiling water
1 cucumber, diced
1 large tomato, diced
1 small red onion, finely chopped
1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
1/4 cup fresh mint, chopped
1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese (optional)
For the Dressing

3 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 garlic clove, minced
Salt and black pepper to taste
For the Hummus

1/2 cup store-bought or homemade hummus
Directions:
Prepare the Bulgur:
Place the bulgur in a large heatproof bowl. Pour the boiling water over it, cover, and let it sit for 15 minutes or until the bulgur absorbs the water and softens. Fluff with a fork and let cool.

Mix the Salad:
Add the cucumber, tomato, red onion, parsley, and mint to the cooled bulgur. Toss gently to combine.

Make the Dressing:
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Pour the dressing over the salad and mix thoroughly.

Assemble:
Spread the hummus on a serving platter or individual plates. Top with the bulgur salad, spreading it evenly over the hummus. Sprinkle with feta cheese if desired.

Serve:
Enjoy immediately or chill in the fridge for 30 minutes for the flavors to meld beautifully.

Serving and Storage Tips:
Serving: Serve this salad as a main dish or a side with grilled meats, fish, or roasted vegetables.
Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. If storing, keep the hummus separate to prevent it from soaking into the salad.
Variations:
Protein Boost: Add grilled chicken, chickpeas, or shrimp for a heartier meal.
Vegan Option: Skip the feta cheese and use plant-based hummus for a vegan-friendly version.
Extra Veggies: Toss in roasted bell peppers, zucchini, or eggplant for additional flavor.
Spicy Twist: Add a pinch of chili flakes or drizzle some harissa over the hummus for a spicy kick.
