Wash and drain spinach and mushrooms separately. Cut onion in 4 pieces and slice.
Place bulgur in a strainer and wash it, set aside. It will absorb some water and will cook easily.
Heat olive oil in a pot over medium heat. Add onions and sauté for about 3 minutes. Add mushrooms, tomatoes, and bulgur, continue to sauté for about 5 more minutes over slow heat. Add spinach, salt and pepper. Cover the lid and let it simmer over low heat until spinach is tender but not mushy, about 5 minutes. Spinach and tomato juices will allow you to cook it without adding any water to the pot. Serve hot or at room temperature with plain yogurt (optional).
