  • 4 tomatoes

sunny and well seasoned!

Cook the bulgur according to the package instructions until soft and let cool. Bulgur from the previous day is also suitable. Mix it with the pesto. Chop the remaining ingredients (except the pine nuts) into small pieces (very finely or medium-finely, depending on your taste) and mix it with the bulgur. If you like, you can also add hot chili peppers for a bit more flavor. Season everything with salt and (a little!) pepper. Be careful, as some feta cheese can be quite salty, depending on the brand. Finally, toast the pine nuts and sprinkle them over the salad.
