Ingredients
1 1/2 cups bulgur wheat
1/2 teaspoon grated lemon zest, plus 2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano
Pinch of sugar
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 Persian cucumbers, thinly sliced

4 ounces herb-marinated feta, crumbled
1/4 cup torn fresh mint

Directions
- Pour 3 cups boiling water over the bulgur in a large bowl. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and let sit until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and let cool.
