Ingredients

1 cup medium grind bulgur wheat
1 ½ cups water
2 tsp salt
1 tbsp olive oil

Bulgur wheat is fantastic staple to have on hand. Use in traditional tabbouleh salads, or add to soups and stews for some extra, delicious heft. Bulgur also works perfectly in replacement for any recipe that calls for brown rice. Enjoy!

INSTRUCTIONS

Add 1 cup medium grind bulgur, 1 ½ cups water, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 tablespoon olive oil to the Instant Pot. Stir to combine.
Pressure Cook the bulgur on Low for 10 minutes .
Once the cooking time is over, allow the Instant Pot to naturally release for 10 minutes on the Keep Warm setting. After 10 minutes, flip the valve to release any residual steam.
Fluff the bulgur with a fork. Serve as a side or use as a base for grain-based salads.
