Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
Olive oil, for drizzling
1 cup bulgur wheat
1 cup chopped sour cherries
2/3 cup finely chopped fresh parsley
2/3 cup finely chopped toasted walnuts
1/2 cup finely chopped red onion
1/2 cup finely chopped fresh dill
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 cloves grated garlic
1/2 cup crumbled feta

Steps:

Add 2 cups water to a medium saucepot. Season with salt and drizzle in some olive oil, then stir in the bulgur. Bring a boil over high heat, then cover, lower to a simmer and cook until the grains are tender, about 1 hour. Allow bulgur to come to room temperature.
Combine the bulgur wheat with the cherries, parsley, walnuts, red onion and dill in a large bowl, reserving about 1 tablespoon of each herb for garnish. Gently mix to combine. Add the extra-virgin olive oil, lemon juice and grated garlic and season to taste. Transfer to a serving bowl and garnish with feta, reserved herbs and a drizzle of olive oil.
