This recipe is part of "The SparkPeople Cookbook." Order your copy today! This salad is even better the longer it sits in the fridge, so we love to make a big batch of it and eat it throughout the week.

This a sample of Turkish cuisine. It is delicious, easy to cook, and nutritious. You can eat it alone as a main dish, or serve with either meat or beans. It is also good with yogurt .

This soup, based on a Turkish recipe given to me by a friend, is incredibly filling. (It is called Bride Ezo Soup.)

Thanks for the insprational video Chef Meg. I just had to tweak your recipe a bit to satisfy the bulgur loving tabbouli heads that I cook for!

This meal can be made either as a casserole or as stuffed zucchini. The zucchini have to be rather large in order to be stuffed but by dicing the zucchini and mixing in a casserole dish, the same flavors can be achieved. The mix almost gives a feeling of sausage instead of ground turkey and Italian seasoning. Turkey sausage (out of the casing and treated like ground meat) can be substituted and the seasoning left out if desired.

I would like to try this recipe with ground poultry or bison. This dish is protein and carb combined, so just add some veggies. I like with herbed, diced tomatoes on top with some steamed or roasted asparagus (see recipe in cookbook) on the side. YUM!

Bulgur and chickpeas have complementary amino acids, so this lemony salad offers you a complete protein package. You can prepare coarse bulgur by simmering it or by soaking it. Simmering will yield a softer, fluffier grain — and bigger portions.

This is my friend Mac's recipe. The cajun seasoning was counted in the recipe as pepper, but it's possible that it had a little salt in it. Calculate accordingly.

I love Bulgar wheat!!! This is a filling recipe with both carbs and protein.

Delicious and salt free! Flavourful cumin takes the place of salt. The weight of the beans is after they are cooked (soft), or use canned. I made this recipe up today.

During a trip to the Turkish coast, my friends and I gobbled down vegetarian bulgur "meatballs," called yalanci cig kofte. "Yalanci" means liar because the bulgur and potatoes are used instead of raw meat, as in the original recipe.

This Lebanese dish is the original recipe from southern Lebanon. It is still common in other parts of Lebanon and mostly made with rice instead. It's a healthier twist by using wheat instead . Extremely simple to cook, this dish is a fundamental component of Middle Eastern cuisine.
It provides carbohydrates, proteins, Iron, fiber, and a full stomach. It also tastes great.
When cooked with rice, this recipe is gluten-free. It isn't gluten free when cooked with bulgur (wheat).

Hope you enjoy this vegetarian mush!

Makes 7 cups. Serve with tomatoes, cucumber, mint, lemon juice and olive oil salad. My kids loves it mixed with yougurt.

Easy to put together in the crockpot, healthy, and inexpensive. Add more mushrooms if desired or mushrooms of your choice if desired.
Barley could be used in place of the bulger.

I make a variation on this on a regular basis. Makes two hefty portions, or two servings and some for lunch. (And it's even better the next day!)

You can also add vegetables to this - I'll chop in some zucchini, or frozen corn, or more tomatoes if I have them on hand.

This recipe was on PBS "Everyday Food". The original recipe can be found here

I changed the recipe because I didn't want to fry the chickpeas (save a little fat!). I enjoyed it without frying them, but I thought I'd include the original list in case anyone wants to try it that way, too. Salt and pepper are NOT included in in nutritional information because I choose not to use salt.
