Ingredients

  • 1-1/4 cups low-sodium vegetable broth heated
  • 1 cup #2 medium or #3 coarse bulgur
  • 1-1/2 tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1/2 cup tomatoes chopped

  • 2 tsps. lemon juice
  • 2 tsps. honey
  • 2 tsps. canola oil
  • salt and pepper to taste (salt optional)

Instructions

  • Heat the oil in a saute pan over medium heat and saute the garlic until it is tender; do not let it get brown.
  • Add the bulgur and saute until it smells toasty, about 10 minutes. Pour in the hot broth, reduce the heat to low, cover and simmer until all the broth has been absorbed, about 10 minutes.
