Vegetable Chicken Bulgur Salad with Lemon Garlic Vinaigrette
The combination of vegetables in this very flavorful salad is just perfect. The bulgur adds a wonderful springy texture and the dressing is seriously the best - it's bright and tangy, and the garlic add the perfect amount of flavor.
Put the lemon juice, Dijon mustard, the garlic (pressed), and some salt and pepper together in a small mixing bowl.
For the Vegetable Chicken Bulgur Salad
Blanch the broccoli and carrots in a colander over boiling water – about 3 minutes for each, until crisp tender. I usually cook the vegetables and bulgur the night before, then allow to chill in the fridge overnight. If you want to make it the same day, just be sure to run cold water over the cooked vegetables and bulgur, then allow to chill for at least 1 hour before tossing them in the salad.
Toss in the Vinaigrette and combine all ingredients together in a large mixing bowl, sprinkle generously with salt and pepper, and serve.
