Bulgur Pilaf with Quinoa

Looking for a filling snack that will help you keep your calorie goals in check? This delicious recipe made with bulgur is the ideal meal to have before a workout.

Here’s what you need to make this delicious and nutritious pilaf meal:

• 2 cups of red quinoa
• 2 cups of Coarse Duru Bulgur
• 4 tablespoons of oil
• 3 tablespoons of butter
• A dash of salt
• 1 cup of dried tomatoes, finely diced
• 8 cups of water
• 200 grams of shrimp

Red quinoa has a richer taste and slightly chewier than the standard white variant, which makes this perfect to go alongside the nutty Coarse Duru Bulgur. You can lessen the butter and the salt if you want to make a healthier salad.

With these ingredients at hand, preparing this tasty dish is easy with these steps:

1. Sautée the shrimp
2. Wash the red quinoa with filtered water
3. Pour the oil into a pot and make the oil cover its entire surface.
4. Add the washed red quinoa and the Coarse Duru Bulgur. Stir for about three minutes.
5. Mix the dried tomatoes
6. Sprinkle a dash of salt and add some hot water.
7. Add butter and cover the pot with a lid.
8. Cook on medium heat and wait until the water is fully absorbed. After that, please set it to low heat for about 10 minutes. Leave for about 20 minutes
9. Add the sautéed shrimp and serve. — (TGM)
