Steps:
- Cook or soak the bulgur until tender according to package directions. Drain off any excess water, and set aside to cool.
- Meanwhile, combine the diced cucumber and tomato in a medium bowl with 1/2 teaspoon of the salt. Stir, and let the mixture rest for at least 10 minutes, or until you're ready to mix the salad.
- To prepare the parsley, cut off the thick stems. Then, finely chop the parsley and remaining stems-you can do this by hand, but it's much easier in a food processor with the standard "S" blade. Process 1 bunch at a time (it should yield about 1 cup chopped), transferring the chopped parsley to a large serving bowl before proceeding with the next.
- Add the cooled bulgur, chopped fresh mint (if using) and green onion to the bowl of parsley. Strain off and discard the cucumber and tomato juice that has accumulated in the bottom of the bowl (this ensures that your tabbouleh isn't too watery). Add the strained cucumber and tomato to the bowl.
- In a small measuring cup or bowl, whisk together the olive oil, 3 tablespoons lemon juice, garlic, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt. Pour it into the salad and stir to combine. Taste, and adjust if necessary-add another tablespoon of lemon juice for zing, or salt for more overall flavor.
- If you have the time, let the salad rest for 15 minutes before serving to let the flavors mingle. Otherwise, you can serve it immediately or chill it for later. Tabbouleh will keep well in the refrigerator, covered, for up to 4 days.

Steps:
- Make the tomato sauce. Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium heat and add the onion. Cook, stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes, and add the garlic. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, about a minute, and add the tomatoes, salt to taste, pepper, sugar, cinnamon, paprika and allspice. Turn the heat up to medium-high and cook until the tomatoes are bubbling. Stir together, turn the heat back to medium-low, partly cover and cook, stirring often, until the tomatoes have cooked down and the sauce is thick and fragrant, 25 to 30 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning. Remove from the heat. If your sauce is chunky, put through a food mill or pulse in a food processor fitted with the steel blade. Set aside.
- Meanwhile, blanch the kale in salted boiling water for 4 minutes or steam for 5 to 8 minutes, until tender. Rinse with cold water and squeeze dry. Chop fine (you can do this by pulsing in a food processor fitted with the steel blade.)
- Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a large, heavy skillet and add the garlic. When it begins to smell fragrant, in about 30 seconds, stir in the chopped kale. Toss together and season to taste with salt and freshly ground pepper. Stir in the bulgur and dill, combine well and remove from the heat.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Oil a 3-quart baking or gratin dish. Spoon a small amount of tomato sauce on the bottom of the dish, and spoon in the bulgur and kale. Spread in an even layer. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of the Parmesan on top and cover with the remaining tomato sauce, spread in an even layer.
- Beat together the eggs, yogurt and 2 tablespoons of the remaining Parmesan. Season with salt, pepper and paprika. Spoon over the tomato sauce and spread in an even layer. Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan on top. Place in the oven and bake 30 to 35 minutes, until golden. Remove from the heat and let sit for 10 minutes or longer before serving.

KALE TABBOULEH
Here's the thing about tabbouleh salad: Most of the ones I've had invert my preferred proportion of bulgur to parsley. What you usually get is a bowl of tabbouleh studded with bits of parsley. I like a salad that is mostly parsley, studded with grains of tabbouleh. I pictured a generous ratio of green to tan, but with kale standing in for parsley. It has a hint of parsley's pleasing bitterness, but is far milder, which means that this tabbouleh salad didn't have to be just a side dish, one best eaten in small portions. Instead, I could eat a whole bowl of it - a dream for a raw kale devotee.

GRILLED SALMON KEBABS WITH KALE TABBOULEH
Salmon is not only the perfect foil for a fresh tabbouleh salad, but it's also hearty enough to withstand skewering and grilling, and won't flake apart as easily as leaner white fish. This dish packs the punch of two major superfoods: omega-3 rich salmon and vitamin-loaded kale.

Steps:
- Cook the bulgur as the label directs. Meanwhile, toss the kale, tomatoes, scallions, mint, 2 tablespoons lemon juice and 4 teaspoons olive oil in a large bowl. Fluff the bulgur and stir into the kale mixture. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate while you prepare the kebabs.
- Preheat the grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat. Whisk the remaining 2 teaspoons olive oil, the cumin and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Add the salmon chunks, tossing well to coat. Thread the salmon onto 8 skewers. (If using wooden skewers, soak them in water first for about 20 minutes.) Oil the grill grates; grill the kebabs, turning, until the fish is opaque, 6 to 8 minutes.
- While the fish cooks, stir together the yogurt, cucumber and remaining lemon juice (about 1 tablespoon); season with salt and pepper. Divide the tabbouleh and salmon kebabs among plates; serve with the yogurt sauce and lemon wedges.
