1 1/2 cup  cold water 1.0
1 cup  wheat, bulgur, dry 0.5
0 1/2 cup  fresh lemon juice 1.0
1 each  medium garlic cloves 3.0
3 cup  chopped parsley 4.0
4 each  scallions 3.0
3 each  medium tomatoes 1.0
1 cup  canned garbanzo beans (chickpeas), unsalted 1.0

1. In a large bowl, pour the boiling water over the bulgur. Cover tightly and set aside for 20 to 30 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, in a separate bowl, stir together 1/3 cup of lemon juice and the garlic, parsley, scallions, tomatoes, and chickpeas. When the bulgur has absorbed the water and softened, stir it with a fork to fluff the grains.
