Regarding bulgar. I love the stuff with various seeds or nuts added to it. If you are allergic to specific types of nuts or peanuts, leave 'em out. Make burger patties with it just the way folks make hamburger patties, and add sliced onions and tomatoes--like a regular burger. Make a relish using fresh chili peppers, brown sugar, cucumbers, cooked beans, sea salt. Use fresh-made burger buns or fresh bread. Nice light lunch. Fruit whips--fresh fruit in a blender, sweetened to taste.
