Fruited Bulgur Salad

This makes a splendid companion to curried vegetable dishes, as in the menu suggested here.

Cooks' Note

Dried fruit bits are shelved with other packaged dried fruits in supermarkets or natural foods stores.

Recipe information

  • Yield

    4 to 6 servings

Ingredients

1 cup bulgur
1 cup mixed dried fruit bits (see note)
2 medium celery stalks, finely diced
1/2 cup natural low-fat honeymustard dressing
1/3 cup toasted sliced or slivered almonds

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Boil 2 cups water. Pour the water over the bulgur in a heatproof container and cover. Let stand for 30 minutes, then fluff with a fork. Allow the bulgur to cool, uncovered, until it is at room temperature.

    Step 2

    Transfer the bulgur to a serving container. Add the remaining ingredients, stir to combine, and serve. If making ahead of time, add the almonds just before serving.
