INGREDIENTS
1 cup cooked Bulgur Wheat (182g)
1 cup Mixed Roasted Vegetables (150g)
0.75 cup Roasted Chickpeas (125g)
0.5 oz Toasted Pumpkin Seeds (14g)
100g Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 handful Fresh Herbs (parsley & mint, 10g)
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice (15g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). On a baking sheet, toss chopped red bell pepper, zucchini, and red onion with a light spray of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast for about 20-25 minutes until the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.
Meanwhile, drain and rinse canned chickpeas (or use pre-cooked chickpeas) and pat them dry. Spread them on a separate baking sheet, season with your preferred spices (such as paprika, cumin, and a pinch of salt), and roast in the oven for 20 minutes until crisp.
Toast pumpkin seeds lightly in a dry skillet over medium heat for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently until they are fragrant and golden. Set aside to cool.
In a large bowl, combine 1 cup of cooked bulgur wheat with the roasted vegetables and roasted chickpeas.
Prepare the dressing by mixing the nonfat Greek yogurt with fresh chopped parsley and mint, lemon juice, and a small pinch of salt. Stir well to combine.
Pour the dressing over the bulgur and vegetable mixture and toss gently to evenly coat all the ingredients.
Sprinkle the toasted pumpkin seeds on top and serve immediately, enjoying the blend of warm roasted flavors with the tangy, herby dressing.
