I've made this recipe many times (*smiles*),
only instead of tomato juice, I added tomatoes! 


Prepare a day ahead, and chill overnight.
Look for bulgur (also called cracked wheat) in natural foods stores and supermarkets.

Ingredients
~~~~~~~~
2 1/2 cups bulgur (about 1 pound)
1/3 cup chopped green onions
3 1/2 cups (packed) fresh parsley leaves
2 large carrots, peeled, cut into 1-inch pieces (about 2 cups)
1 large red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces (about 1 cup)
2 cups tomato juice
1 1/2 cups water
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
3 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme

Directions
~~~~~~~~~
Place bulgur and onions in large bowl. Finely chop parsley in processor.
Add to bulgur. Finely chop carrots in processor; add to bulgur.
Finely chop bell pepper in processor; add to bulgur.
Add tomato juice and next 5 ingredients; toss.
Cover; chill overnight. Mix thyme into tabbouleh.
Season with salt and pepper; serve.
