This is an amazing dish. I had never tried this grain before and found it very quick and easy to prepare. The flavor has a beautiful nuttiness and interesting texture. Next time I'll try some sun dried tomatoes and/or mushrooms. Excellent addition to my growing book of tasty dishes.

Loved it. My husband and I made this for Valentines day. We had it with the baked salmon from the same show. All I can say is we loved it. Thank you for introducing us to bulger wheat. We will be having this again and again.

The only reason this didn't get five stars from me was because my kids didn't care for it. I thought it was fabulous, though! I had never bought bulgar before---had never even heard of it. I found it in the organic section of my grocery store. Will make this recipe again (hoping my kids will start to love it too because it is healthy dish.

I made this with BBQ chicken and it was great. I omitted the mint because I didn't have any on hand and it still tasted great.

Bulgur grains come in at least three sizes, something I never thought much about until I saw their packages side-by-side in a grocery store. I haven't made this, (sounds tasty, though, especially with Christopher's suggestion of pine nuts but I would imagine that the larger, coarser-grained sort of bulgur would take much longer to absorb liquids than the fine-grained sort. In addition, a measured amount of the finer-grained sort should be able to absorb more liquid than the same measured amount of the coarser-grained sort, so if using the coarse-grained bulgur, then maybe try using less liquid and allow more time.

I made this recipe for a family dinner at my parents' home last weekend and absolutely loved it! I didn't have a problem with the lemon, but the red pepper flakes were a little much. I would either back off a little on the red pepper or swap it for grated parmesan cheese instead. My husband is from Louisiana so we eat a lot of rice. I love the fact that this is so similar to rice or couscous, but much healthier.

I did like the flavor AFTER I got past the lemon so I will probably make again sans the lemon. After about 15-20 it never did completely absorb the liquid so I had to drain it. I might add some raisins next time.

This was so appealing to me (and rare for one of her recipes to attract me
But for me, not only did the wheat NOT absorb the liquid in 5 to 7 minutes, it wasn't fully absorbed in the 15 minutes that a previous reviewer experienced.

Regardless, after about 20 minutes, when it was still not completely absorbed, nor did it look like Sunny's rice like texture, I still served it and it was very tasty.

I liked it enough to play with it and see what i can do with it I substituted toasted pine nuts and they were great.

I made this dish yesterday for lunch and it was amazing! Very filling...Also very addictive. The only thing I would change is not to add so much lemon juice - it can be a bit overpowering. But otherwise, simply YUMMY!
