In a pot, combine bulgur with water (2 cups of water for each cup of bulgur) and a pinch of salt. Bring it to a boil, covered. Once it starts boiling, reduce the heat to a minimum. Cook until the bulgur has absorbed the water, which should take 10-12 minutes. Set it aside, covered, in the pot.

Mise en place:

Peel cucumber, cut it in half lengthwise, and remove seeds with a spoon. Cut it into small cubes.
Cut tomato into wedges and remove seeds. Cut into small cubes.
Cut scallion at an angle and chop mint.
Grate lemon zest and cut the lemon in half. 

The dressing:

In a small bowl, crumble feta cheese.
Add Greek yogurt and lemon zest.
Stir and set aside. 

The tabouleh:

In a large bowl, place bulgur, cucumber, tomato, scallion (set aside a bit for garnish), and mint.
Squeeze lemon over it and add a dash of olive oil.
Season with salt and pepper.
Mix everything. 

Your meal:

Divide tabbouleh among the plates and place chickpeas and roasted bell pepper strips on top.
Finish with the dressing and a sprinkle of scallion.
