Great, grainy salad I found in the Everyday Food magazine.
(WARNING: It's dangerously addictive...pace yourself...you'll eat more than you realize, and then it feels like it keeps expanding in your tummy! haha...)

Bulgur Salad with Grapes and Feta Cheese
Serves 2
½ cup fine-grained bulgur wheat
½ teaspoon coarse salt
¾ cup boiling water
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon olive oil
coarse salt and ground pepper
2 tablespoons minced scallion
¾ cup halved seedless grapes
½ cup chopped walnuts
½ cup crumbled feta cheese
1. In a medium bowl, combine ½ cup fine-grain bulgur wheat, ½ teaspoon coarse salt, and ¾ cup boiling water. Cover; let stand until bulgur is tender, 30 minutes (Make sure all water is absorbed, otherwise, your salad is too "wet" instead of nice and fluffy.)
2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice and 1 tablespoon olive oil; season with coarse salt and ground pepper. Add 2 tablespoons minced scallion, ¾ cup halved seedless grapes, ½ cup each toasted chopped walnuts and crumbled feta. Add bulgur; toss.

Yes, yes, yes! That Barry Sorkin...a brilliant guy. (And a nice guy, too!)
Best BBQ in the city by far.

Thanks for the great suggestions, everyone, including general advice about what to expect on a Greyhound bus adventure. I've done >24-hour bus marathons through the Midwest; this next one is through the Deep South—to New Orleans, as a matter of fact, where I've never been and where I will definitely spend on food the money I saved on airfare. Anyway, I expect I'll pick up plenty of fodder for my never-to-be-written novel as I observe my fellow passengers and snack on salad-filled wraps. I also love the idea of Nutella, which I can eat with a spoon but won't. The trickiest, most important thing will probably be to stay hydrated while avoiding the bus bathroom. Oy.
