If you enjoy the earthy taste of bulgur, you will like this recipe. I thought it was GREAT! I made it just as written - no substitutions or changes. The inclusion of the lemon peel/fresh lemon juice was nice. I think if you are someone who is dieting, recipes with interesting flavors help a LOT with satiety. It felt like I ordered this is at a restaurant! Loved it!!

bulgur turned out sticky and musshy. and i didn't even use all 3 cups of water. I would recommend only using 2 cups.

This was delicious! I used arborio rice instead of the bulger since that is what I had on hand. We didn't even miss the butter or cheese. Pairs perfectly with the garlic shrimp.

This was such a great meal! Everyone loved the lemon taste and I was surprised at how light it tasted. I used orzo instead of bulgur, but will definitely try making it in the future with bulgur.
