    Categories : salads/dressings spring/summer

    Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
    -------- ------------ --------------------------------
    1/3 cup bulgur -- medium or coarse
    1 teaspoon salt
    2 cups boiling water
    1/2 cup pecan halves
    2 small Roma tomatoes -- seeded and chopped
    1/4 cucumber, English
    2 tablespoons olive oil
    2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
    1 teaspoon honey
    1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
    1/2 teaspoon cumin powder
    1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
    1/8 teaspoon black pepper -- freshly ground
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    2 tablespoons fresh dill weed -- chopped
    2 cups lettuce leaves -- torn

    1. In a medium bowl combine bulgur, 1 teaspoon salt, and water. Let bulgur
    soak, uncovered, until softened, 20 to 25 minutes.

    2. While bulgur is soaking, in a dry small heavy skillet toast pecans over
    moderately low heat, shaking skillet frequently, until a shade darker, 4 to
    5 minutes. Cool pecans and chop. Seed tomato and chop. Chop cucumber.

    3. In a small bowl whisk together oil, lemon juice, honey, spices, pepper,
    and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, until emulsified. Drain bulgur in a sieve
    and press out any excess water. Return to bowl and add tomatoes, cucumber,
    pecans, and dill. Drizzle with dressing and toss well. Divide greens
    between 2 plates and top with bulgur mixture.
