Vegan Bulgursalad to go
You need (2 servings)
- 2 cups of bulgur
- about 100 g Ajvar (mild)
- 1 red pepper (alternatively tomato)
- 1 carrot
- 1/2 mango (alternatively apple)
- 1/2 pomegranate
- 1/2 avocado
- 1 teaspoon of olive oil
- Topping: arugula, handful of walnuts
- salt
- pepper
- thyme
- optional: Just Spices Hot garlic onion dip
Preparation
- First cook bulgur in hot water for about 10 minutes. I always add some vegetable stock, as it gives the bulgur a bit of flavor.
- Then start cutting! Wash the pepper and carrot and cut them into small pieces. I like them in this salad relatively small, for a good mixture of all ingredients.
- Cut the mango and avocado in half and remove the pulp from one side and chop it as well.
- be careful with the pomegranate (especially when you wearing a with shirt); remove and place the seeds in a larger bowl with all the other ingredients.
- Now the bulgur should be finished. Just mix it with Ajvar and season with salt, pepper and thyme.
- Mix the bulgur with the cutted ingredients and add a little olive oil.
- Now you only have to top them with arugula and walnuts and your super healthy to go lunch is finished!
I like Ajvar in its mild form, but of course you can go for the spicy version! I think this salad is a perfect way to stay healthy, without a lot of preparation work. The good thing: You can prepare it for example easily in the evening and take it with you the next morning without stress.
Enjoy your lunch!
