Yummmy Bulgur Wheat is good source of fiber, and a staple of Mediterranean, Middle Eastern and Caribbean region. Because bulgur is made by cooking the entire wheat kernel, drying it and chopping it in smaller pieces, it remains a whole grain. Its quick cooking time and mild avor make it ideal for those new to whole grain cooking. Make quick side dishes, pilafs, salads or tabbouleh. It can be added to meat dishes like kibbeh and meatloaf, to boost nutrition and bulk them up. Toss uncooked bulgur into soup, stew or chili and simmer until its soft. Use it for cereal or a side dish, the same way youd use brown rice and oats. Make a sweet salad with cooked bulgur, carrots, raisins, pineapples and a raspberry vinaigrette. Cook bulgur in low-salt chicken broth and add any combination of your favorite salad ingredients; some that pair well include beans, tomatoes, cucumbers, radishes, onions, sweet peppers, spinach, walnuts and chicken. Try the following recipe: Ingredients: * 4 stalks of scallion * 1 carrot * Olive oil * 1 cup boiling water * 1-1/2 cup of bulgur * 1/2 tsp of cumin * 1/2 tsp of salt * 1/4 tsp of black pepper * Butter * Garnish with parsley, raisins, chopped tomatoes and/or walnuts Directions: 1) Heat saucepan in high heat and add olive oil to cover base of the pan 2) Once hot, add chopped scallions to pan and lower heat to medium 3) When scallion are soft, add bulgur wheat (with water you had it sit in), and add a bit of butter 4) Wait 1 min 5) Add 1 cup of water, chopped carrot, cumin, salt and pepper, increase heat to bring to boil and cover with lid 6) Once boiling, reduce heat and stir bulgur around so as to not let it stick to pan and wait 10-15 mins. 7) Once you start to see water disappear, taste it and if hard, add a little bit of water. If not necessary, remove from heat, stir and let it sit so that remaining water evaporates 8) Once fully cooked add to bowl and garnish
