Lentil Bulgur Recipes

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 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!

Very nice lunch item. Very filling. Vegetarian.

This lentil soup recipe makes a lot. For best flavor sprinkle on cayenne pepper for a garnish in an amount you feel tastes best. You can also garnish with a dollop of sour cream or greek plain yogurt if you desire or 2 tsp lemon juice. I do not; I like it with hot peppers only (copious amounts). Get the full nutritional break down on the soup only and you'll agree this is healthy; however it is also very good tasting with many textures and tastes. I like mine with whole grain rye bread and caraway seeds, the sharper the better or pumpernickel bread and brushed with homemade butter. This turns out very thick ( you can water or bullion it for more broth)

Slow Cooker

This is an adaptation of a vegan lentil burger recipe I found here at SparkRecipes. To make this vegan, simply omit the oil and use non-stick cooking spray or a non-stick skillet.

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.

throw in any veggies lying around!

A yummy fiber and protein-packed vegan salad

Serve chilled with salmon fillet.

Based on recipe of same name in the American Heart Association Low-Calorie Cookbook. The main thing I changed was using fennel bulb instead of celeriac or celery.
