Speedy Side Dish: Bulgur with Pine Nuts


Quick? Check.

Easy? Check.

Healthy? Check.

Here's a super healthy whole grain side dish that takes 20 minutes start to finish with very little prep or fuss...Its packed with nutrients from the whole grain and fiber filled bulgur to the protein packed pine nuts. Use low fat/low sodium chicken broth or sub with veggie broth to make it even healthier...

Bulgur with Pine Nuts
1 cup bulgur
2 cups chicken broth
2 green onions, chopped
1/4 cup pine nuts, toasted


In a large saucepan, combine the bulgur, broth and onions; bring to a boil over high heat.




Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 15-18 minutes or until broth is absorbed.



Add pine nuts and stir to combine.

What the heck is bulgur and what does it taste like??

Cat Von C said...

Bulgur is wheat...it tastes similar to brown rice with a little tinge of sweetness to it. Its not bad...I mean, you know its healthy when you eat it-its no pasta carbonara, but it is good.

So funny my dyslexia made me read it as "burger". I too had no idea what "bulgur" was so I looked it up on wikipedia and now I know! Looks quite yummy and, wow, sounds so simple and easy to make!
