This is a traditional Lebanese dish that people often make to take with them on trips. Bulgur wheat mixed with minced meat was originally used as a means to stretch meager resources to feed more members of the family. Keep in mind that this is a quick version of Kibbeh Pie, and that you may find more complicated versions!
