Bulgur is a quick-cooking type of whole wheat, commonly used in Middle Eastern cooking, that has been cleaned, parboiled, dried and ground. This ground bulgur \u201cmeat\u201d is a wonderful stand-in for ground beef in dishes like tacos, chili, casseroles, and \u201cmeat\u201d sauces.\u00a0One tip: It works especially well in our Corn & Green Chile Enchiladas<\/a>. If taco seasoning isn\u2019t for you, try mixing in another of your favorite seasonings!<\/h2>\n

Directions<\/h3>\n
\n
Make the Ground Burger<\/div>\n
\n
\n

Preheat oven to 300\u00b0F.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Place bulgur wheat in a saucepan. Process the remaining ingredients (water, walnuts, onion, garlic, McKay\u2019s Seasoning, salt) in a high-speed blender until smooth, then pour over the bulgur wheat. Cook over low heat for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently, while simmering. Turn off the heat and let it stand for about 20 minutes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Bake the Ground Burger<\/div>\n
\n
\n

Spread evenly on a baking sheet covered with parchment paper and bake for about 1 hour, or until the burger is mostly dry. When done cooking, remove from oven and let it sit for about 30 minutes, then crumble it with your fingers. Since this recipe makes a large amount, place the desired portion in a skillet, then add water and seasoning for flavor.<\/p>\n

Tip: Freeze the remaining bulgur in sandwich bags. When ready to use, heat the bulgur meat in a skillet, adding water and desired seasoning.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":4608,"featured_media":1451,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","recipe_category":[2707],"yst_prominent_words":[1619,872,1038,2487,697],"class_list":["post-20661","cp_recipe","type-cp_recipe","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","cp_recipe_category-sides","cp_recipe_cuisine-american","cp_recipe_cooking_method-baking","cp_recipe_cooking_method-simmering","cp_recipe_tags-recipe-videos"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/lifeandhealth.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cooked_recipe\/20661","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/lifeandhealth.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cooked_recipe"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/lifeandhealth.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/cp_recipe"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lifeandhealth.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4608"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lifeandhealth.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=20661"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lifeandhealth.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1451"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/lifeandhealth.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=20661"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"cp_recipe_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lifeandhealth.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/recipe_category?post=20661"},{"taxonomy":"yst_prominent_words","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lifeandhealth.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/yst_prominent_words?post=20661"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
