Ingredients

3 cup vegetable broth
1 1/2 cup uncooked bulgar
6 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoon lemon juice
2 tablespoon minced parsley
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
one 15-ounce can garbanzo beans, rinsed and drained
2 cup halved cherry tomatoes
1 cup chopped cucumber
8 green onions, sliced
one 4-ounce package crumbled feta cheese
1/2 cup pine nuts, toasted

Directions

In a large saucepan, bring the broth and bulgur to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes or until tender and the broth is almost absorbed. Remove from the heat and let stand at room temperature, uncovered, until the broth is absorbed.
In a small bowl, whisk the oil, lemon juice, parsley, salt, and pepper. In a large serving bowl, combine the bulgur, beans, tomatoes, cucumber, and onions. Drizzle with the dressing and toss to coat. Sprinkle with cheese and pine nuts to garnish.
