Bulgur Wheat with a Protein
Ingredients
- Protein
- 1 tsp olive oil
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp cumin, ground
- 1/2 tsp coriander, ground
- 1/4 tsp ginger, ground
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon, ground
- heavy pinch of salt
- ground black pepper
- Bulgur Wheat
- .5 cup bulgur wheat
- 1 cup water
- .5 tsp vegatable stock
- Tahni Dressing
- 2 Tbsp tahni
- .5 Tbsp maple syrup
- .5 Tbsp coconut aminos
- 1-2 Tbsp water
Directions
- Place bulgur wheat into pot and lightly toast. Add water and vegatable stock. Bring to boil and reduce heat to simmer. Cover and cook 15 minutes. Let sit, covered, off-heat 10 minutes after cooking.
- While bulgur wheat cooks, prepare protein of choice (tofu, tempeh, or cooked chickpeas work well) by combining oil and spices with protein in a mixing bowl. Toss to coat. If using tofu or tempeh, roast at 400 degress for 12 minutes, tossing a few times during cooking.
- Combine ingredients for tahni dressing in a measuring cup or small bowl. Add enough water to create a thin (but not too thin) dressing.
- Transfer bulgur wheat to a bowl. Place protein on top. Cover with tahini dressing. Add walnuts or olives if desired. Enjoy.
