Steps:

• Heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Add the bulgur and cook, stirring constantly, until toasted, about 5 minutes. Place in a large bowl. Salt the water, bring to a boil and pour it over the bulgur. Let soak until tender but firm, about 10 to 12 minutes. Drain through a fine sieve and place in a bowl.
• Meanwhile, blanch the zucchinis in salted boiling water for 1 minute. Drain and refresh under cold running water. Drain again. Toss the bulgur with the zucchinis, tomatoes, onion, lemon juice, salt, pepper and parsley. Serve at room temperature.

Steps:

• Combine 2 cups halved assorted cherry tomatoes with 1/4 cup each white wine vinegar and olive oil, 1 sliced shallot and 2 tablespoons each chopped basil, mint and chives.

Transfer to a bowl.

Steps:

• In a small saucepan combine the bulgur, the salt, and 3/4 cup water and simmer the mixture, covered, for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the water is absorbed. Transfer the bulgur to a bowl, let it cool for 10 minutes, and stir in the lemon juice, the oil, the parsley, the cucumber, the tomatoes, the scallion, and salt and pepper to taste.

Steps:

• In a large skillet, saute squash in oil until tender. Add the tomatoes, basil, pepper and salt. Reduce heat to medium; cook 1-2 minutes longer or until heated through.
