This tangy salad can be served chilled or at room temperature. Make at least a day ahead so the bulgur will soften and absorb the lemon juice. Try layering it in a trifle bowl so all of the colorful ingredients will show. Prep time does not include refrigeration time. Recipe is from Cooking Light Magazine.
