   place feta, tomato, green onion, cucumber and mint
   into medium sized serving bowl. Gently toss. In small
   bowl, whisk oil with vinegar, salt and pepper. Add
   cooled bulgur to feta mixture and toss gently. Then
   toss with olive oil mixture. Taste and add more salt
   if necessary. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Salad
   taste best if made within a couple of hours of being
   made.
