Health and fertility benefits of Asian Bulgur Rice Salad Recipe

Researchers believe that cranberries contain substances that prevent infection-causing bacteria from sticking to the urinary tract walls. However, store-bought cranberry juice is typically all sugar - so make sure to stick with straight cranberries.

Ingredients

1/2 cup uncooked bulgur
1-1/2 cups boiling water
1-1/2 cups cooked long grain rice
1/2 cup thinly sliced celery
1/2 cup coarsely grated carrot
1/2 cup sliced green pepper
1/4 cup dried cranberries

Instructions

Place bulgur in a small bowl. Stir in boiling water. Cover and let stand for 30 minutes or until most of the liquid is absorbed. Drain and squeeze dry.
In a large bowl, combine the rice, celery, carrot, green pepper, cranberries and bulgur. In a small bowl, whisk the parsley, vinegar, olive oil, onion, water, sesame oil, honey, garlic and seasonings. Pour over rice mixture; toss gently to coat.
Arrange greens on salad plates. Top with rice mixture; sprinkle with almonds.
