Ingredients
- 3/4 c. bulgur wheat
- 8 oz. lean ground beef
- 2 scallions
- 2 clove garlic
- 1 tsp. ground cumin
- 1 tsp. ground turmeric
- kosher salt
- 1 tbsp. olive oil
- 3/4 c. fresh mint leaves
- 1 c. plain fat-free yogurt
- 1/2 cucumber
- 4 multigrain pitas
- 1/4 small red cabbage

Instructions
- Bring a medium pot of water to a boil. Place the bulgur in a medium bowl. Add enough boiling water to cover and let soak until tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain and return the bulgur to the bowl.
