Bulgur with pumpkin
Description
The recipe won't take much time. It will be a great find for those on a diet or observing a fast. You can additionally add any vegetables to your taste—bell pepper, green beans, or carrots work perfectly! If you like spices, I highly recommend adding 1/4 teaspoon of turmeric at the end of cooking and mixing thoroughly! Serve hot.
