When life gives you parsley, make Tabouleh

What do you do with all that fresh parsley?  Well you can garnish everybody's plates with it, including breakfast. I don't recommend it for cereal though. Or you can make tabouleh. Here's my garden fresh recipe for it. I had to buy the tomatoes and cucumbers.  At the bottom is a link to a hummus recipe, because they go together well.

Tabouleh
1/2 c bulgar, cover with boiling water for 30 minutes, then strain very well.
1 1/2 cup of chopped parsley, maybe more
1/2 cup diced green onion
1/2 cup diced cucumber
1 cup diced tomatoes
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/4 cup olive oil
salt and pepper
1 Tablespoon fresh mint, optional
Mix ingredients and serve or refrigerate.
