Bulghur Wheat is a wholewheat grain made  from durum wheat that has been cracked open and precooked partially. Bulgur is very commonly consumed in European, Middle Eastern and Indian cuisine.

Uncooked Bulgur Wheat
As a wholegrain, bulgur wheat is naturally high in fibre and is a low fat, low calorie vegetarian and vegan food ingredient. It is not suitable for those on a gluten-free diet. Using bulgur wheat in a simple mediterranean salad is a great way to fill up with wholegrain and vegetables.

Ingredients (Serves 2)
​1 cup cooked bulgur wheat (roughly 75 gm uncooked )
​1/2 can chickpeas (garbanzo beans)
​1 cup chopped red onion

10 cherry tomatoes, sliced
6-8 baby spinach leaves
12 cubes of feta cheese
Salt & Pepper to season
2 tbsp red wine vinegar

Method
