Bulgur Salad With Broccoli & Baked Bell Peppers

May 31, 2019
I love to food prep because, yeah let's face it, I am lazy. Whenever I cook I try to make so much that I can eat it for several days, maybe even mix it up with new veggies to not get bored. With this quick bulgur salad you will be satisfied for a long time. Perfect for lunch or dinner, it also pairs well with chardonnay. And trust me when I say this, I am not even a big fan of wine. The best is if you prepare the bell peppers the day before and keep the salad in the fridge in a mason jar, which lets the flavors develop and become rich.

Then turn off the heat, add a little water and cover the pan, leaving the broccoli to soften. Add salt and pepper to taste. 7. When broccoli is fork tender, mix it in the bulgur. Season with parsley, lemon juice and a tiny dash of olive oil. Serve it with the bell peppers on top.
