Bulgur—steamed, dried, crushed wheat kernels—is a snap to prepare and goes well with a variety of herbs. It absorbs the flavors of whatever you mix it with. It's probably best known as the grain base of the refreshing Mediterranean tabbouleh salad. Try chives, cilantro or mint here. Toss in some roasted yellow and red cherry tomatoes for additional flavor and color. While this is delicious warm, it is also a terrific recipe to make ahead. Letting it sit in the refrigerator a few hours really allows the flavors to come together. Just be sure to bring the salad to room temperature to serve.
