Lemony Bulgur with Seasonal Vegetables
Prepare bulgur according to package directions. Set aside for 20-30 min.
Meanwhile, heat 1 Tbsp. olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook 1 minute. Add asparagus and ½ cup water. Cover and cook for 5-6 minutes. Add spinach and cook just until wilted, ~2 minutes more.
In a small bowl, mix remaining 3 Tbsp. olive oil, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Fluff bulgur with fork. Fold in asparagus and spinach mixture. Stir in olive oil mixture, walnuts, basil, and mint. Enjoy!
You may substitute other seasonal vegetables for the asparagus. Green beans or sliced zucchini work well, just be sure to adjust the cooking time!
