Mediterranean Tabouli Salad - Healthy Food Tip and Recipe

This is a great Mediterranean-style salad. The bulgur does not need to be cooked, just softened, because it has already been steamed, dried, and cracked. Enjoy!

• 1 cup wheat bulgur (dry), makes 2 cups after combining with liquid
• 1/2 medium onion, minced
• 2 cloves garlic, press or chopped
