WOW, absolutely DELICIOUS!!!! Debbie I have eaten quite a number of bulgur salads (always using millet in place of the bulgur), but this one really is one of the best! The flavours mingle perfectly and the dill and feta combined with the tomatoes and spinach are just super yummy! :) I used your recipe #415662 in place of the bulgur and it was very nice. Added a slightly nutty flavour to the salad. I will most definitely make this again as everyone just raved about it! THANKS SO MUCH for sharing this surpreme recipe here with us!

Wow! This was delicious. I was worried when I saw the amount of bulgar in the bowl soaking. I had to "nuke" the bulgur because after 40 minutes it was still crunchy. I reduced the dill to one tablespoon because dill is overpowering. I would add a1 tablespoon and a half next time. This salad was surprisingly Fantastic. I only added 3 ounces of Feta because that is what I had on hand. I did add the tomatoes which is a MUST in my opinion. It was so good. Did I say this was good?
