    Zesty Marinated Veg-Tabbouleh
    Bulgur is the wholesome grain used in this satisfying salad. No cooking is required, just add boiling water to bring out bulgur's nutty essence.

    Plan ahead…needs to chill 1 hour
    8 servings

    TABBOULEH
    3/4 cup uncooked bulgur
    3 cups boiling water
    1/4 cup dried lentils
    2 cups water
    1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
    1/2 cup grated zucchini
    1/4 cup chopped green onions
    1 medium tomato, chopped

    DRESSING
    1/4 cup low fat Italian dressing
    1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
    1 to 2 tablespoons prepared horseradish

    1. In medium bowl place bulgur. Pour 3 cups boiling water over bulgur; let stand 30 minutes. Drain; fluff with fork. Set aside.

    2. Meanwhile, in 1-quart saucepan bring 2 cups water to a full boil; add lentils. Cook over low heat until tender (15 to 20 minutes). Drain; cool 10 minutes.

    3. In large bowl combine bulgur, lentils, parsley, zucchini, onions and tomato; toss gently.

    4. In small bowl combine all dressing ingredients. Add to bulgur mixture; toss gently to coat. Cover; refrigerate at least 1 hour to blend flavors. Serve on lettuce leaves, if desired.
