I found this recipe at Food.com which includes so many of my favorites into one beautiful and delicious salad.  The is a full meal too! Bulgur is a nutritious, versatile wheat product with a pleasant, nut-like flavor and an extended shelf-life that allows it to be stored for long periods; it can be substituted for converted rice, although it is more nutritious.) Bulgur can be purchased here.

The Avocado Relish can be made ahead and refrigerated.
