- 1 inch fresh ginger
- 1 tablespoon low sodium soy sauce
Instructions
- Prepare the bulgur according to the package. It's a 1:2 bulgur to water ratio. So for our 1 serving of bulgur, ¼ of a cup, you need ½ cup of water. Bring the water to a boil, add the bulgur, cover and remove from heat. Should take about 15 minutes. The longer you soak the softer it will get.¼ cup dry bulgur
- Once the bulgur is to your liking, heat the teaspoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet.1 teaspoon olive oil
- Add the onion, carrot and zucchini. Grate in the ginger. (My ginger secret... I buy a root, cut it into 1 inch chunks and then freeze. Makes it super easy to grate. )1 thick slice of sweet onion chopped, 1 carrot diced, ½ of a small-medium zucchini chopped, 1 inch fresh ginger
- If there is any water left in the bulgur drain it. Add it to the skillet. Stir in the tablespoon of soy sauce and cook for a few minutes allowing the flavors to merge.1 tablespoon low sodium soy sauce
