I grew up with at least one bulgur dish per month. This was very yummy. I didn't use grapes, as they are very expensive at the moment but I will try it again with the grapes, when they are in season. For the Aussies looking for bulgur you may find it is spelt Bourghul its just cracked wheat. Thank you for the recipe :)

A lovely recipe any time of the year. Serve warm or cold. A great sidedish or maindish. Use your imagination to add some protein to the sald. Mmm...I think I could handle another helping!
