Bulgur Pilaf by Salad FoodieFaster and easier to cook than rice, bulgur is a grain to consider for making pilaf. High in fiber and low in fat makes this side dish a healthful choice. Easily converts to vegetarian by omitting the chicken broth. (Medium to large grind bulgur will be best for this recipe.) |

But this would also be great with Israeli cous cous, regular cous cous, pearl barley or even jasmine rice if you are not a fan of quinoa. The mix of flavors is amazing! Try this when fresh corn is cheap and… |

Quinoa Pizza Casserole by Debra ParsonsI do not know who came up with this--I got it from and instructor at my health club who got it from a friend. Anyway, it's really good.

We did it as a light entree with a slad on a Saturday night (even though it is really a side dish).… |
