PostHeaderIcon My New Favorite Lunch

This was on the back of the Goya Bulgar Wheat bag. I decided to try it and it’s really good hot or cold. It also smells really good when it’s cooking. Sometimes I eat it plain and sometimes I scoop it up with corn chips. I’m going to put it here so when they take it off the back of the bag I’ll still have a copy of the recipe – that I can find. Unlike my last favorite recipe. Thanks a lot, black bean bag designers! Though, I am a lot less gassy now. Maybe it was blessing.

Bulgar Pilaf (With Two Cheeses)
4 servings (more like 3)

1T Olive Oil
1 Cup Diced Onions
2 Cloves Garlic, minced
1 Cup Bulgar Wheat
1 Can Diced Tomatoes (I use Jalapeno Tomatoes)
1 ¾ Cup Vegetable Broth
½ Teaspoon Salt
(It also calls for cheese but I don’t use it)
½ Cup shredded Edam or Mozzarella
Grated Parmesan for garnish

1. In a saucepan on medium, heat the oil. Stir in the onion and cook for 5mins until the onion is translucent. (Slightly more time if you’re smart like me and chop a bunch of onions all at once then freeze them in 1 Cup freezer containers)
2. Stir in the garlic and bulgar and cook for two minutes. (This is when it smells really good)
3. Stir in the tomato, broth and salt and bring to a boil. Lower heat, cover and simmer for 20mins until the liquid is absorbed. (I just dump everything in and cook it in the pressure cooker for 10mins.)
4. (Stir in the Edam Cheese. Garnish individual portions with parmesan)
