SPINACH AND BULGAR SALAD
"A healthy whole grain salad. While I honestly do not remember where this recipe came from it has recently come to my attention that it was created by Nan Kelley Lofas, Bainbridge Island, Washington and published in Sunset Magazine’s 1998 annual cookbook."
Ingredients
- ⁄3cup Bulgar wheat
- 1⁄2lb spinach leaves, rinsed and drained
- 1⁄3cup green onion, thinly sliced
- 1⁄3cup fresh dill, chopped
- 4ounces feta cheese, crumbled
- 1⁄4cup red wine vinegar
- 2tablespoons olive oil
- salt and pepper
- 1cup cherry tomatoes, cut in half (optional)
Direction
- In a small bowl, combine bulgur and 1 and a 1/2 cups boiling water. Let stand until bulgur is tender to bite, about 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, stack spinach leaves and cut into 1/4-inch-wide strips.
- Place spinach, onions, dill, and cheese in a wide bowl. Pour bulgur into a fine strainer and press out the excess water. Add bulgur to bowl with spinach.
