Steps:
- First, make the tabbouleh. Tip the bulgur into a saucepan, cover with water, season with salt, then bring to the boil and simmer for 15 mins until tender. Drain in a sieve, rinse under cold running water, then leave to drain over the pan. Mix the mint and parsley with the tomatoes, onion and drained bulghar. Whisk the lemon zest and juice and oil together with seasoning, then toss with the bulgur.
- Spoon the hummus into the bottom of a portable picnic bowl or large Tupperware (or use a large plastic mixing bowl, as you can cover it tightly with cling film later). Scatter with the chickpeas, then sprinkle with seasoning and drizzle with a little oil. Spoon the tabbouleh on top. Now top with the feta and olives, then tear over the lettuce leaves.
- Cover the bowl tightly with its lid or some cling film. Put a little more olive oil in a sealed container to take with you, then chill the salad for up to 24 hrs.
- To eat, drizzle the olive oil over the leaves, then scoop the salad onto serving plates, making sure everyone gets a bit of each layer. Serve with the flatbreads for everyone to tear and share.

Tips:
- Use fresh, ripe ingredients. This will ensure that your tabbouleh is bursting with flavor.
- Chop the parsley and mint finely. This will help the herbs to distribute evenly throughout the tabbouleh.
- Don't overcook the bulgur wheat. It should be cooked until it is tender but still has a slight bite to it.
- Let the tabbouleh cool completely before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld together.
- Serve the tabbouleh with a variety of toppings. This could include hummus, feta cheese, olives, tomatoes, or cucumbers.
Conclusion:
Tabbouleh is a delicious and refreshing salad that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner. It is also a great way to use up leftover bulgur wheat. With its bright flavors and crunchy texture, tabbouleh is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
