- Cook the bulgur / quinoa according to package directions. Let it cool completely.
- In a large bowl, combine the cooled bulgur, chickpeas, cucumber, red onion, parsley, mint, feta, and pistachios.
- In a small bowl or jar, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, salt, and pepper.
- Pour the dressing over the salad and toss until everything is evenly coated.
- Refrigerate for 20–30 minutes to allow the flavors to blend before serving.
- Garnish with extra feta, chopped herbs, and pistachios if desired.
Tips
Keeps well in the refrigerator for up to 4 days, making it perfect for meal prep.
Add grilled chicken, shrimp, or salmon for even more protein.
For a gluten-free version, substitute cooked quinoa for the bulgur.
