• 1 cup bulgur wheat
• 1 cup water (have more ready if needed)
• 3 tbsp taco seasoning (store-bought or grind equal parts pink peppercorn, chile powder, cumin seed & coriander)

Roasted Red Pepper Sour Cream

• 1 red bell pepper, roasted
• ¾ cup low-fat sour cream

1. Preheat oven to 350º
2. Toast bulgur wheat in sauté pan over medium heat, 3-5 minutes, swirling the pan often to assure even toasting. Watch to prevent burning
3. Roast pepper on a baking sheet at 350º for 45 minutes. Set aside and allow to cool
4. Mix 3 tbsp taco seasoning with 1 cup of water and add to the toasted bulgur. Cook over medium heat for 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Taste at 3 minutes for doneness. If water has evaporated and the bulgur is still hard, add ¼ - ½ cup more water
