Pour bulgur in a salad bowl. Pour ½ cup boiling water over it, and allow to sit undisturbed until fully softened. Follow package instructions if further direction is necessary.
¼ cup bulgur, ½ cup boiling water
While the bulgur is soaking, prepare the herbs and veggies. Use a knife to cut up mint and parsley, removing large stems as much as possible. Slice the green onions thinly. Cut up tomatoes and cucumber into bite-size cubes.
1 ½ bunch parsley, 4 sprigs mint, 4 small tomatoes, ½ cucumber, 2 green onions

Combine all ingredients in a separate salad bowl. This prevents any remaining water from soaking the bulgur from getting into the salad. Give it a good stir, and allow to sit undisturbed for 15-20 minutes. This step isn't strictly necessary, but it creates a nicer flavor.
