This is a great side dish that comes together easily. Bulgur is a whole grain used in many Middle Eastern and Indian dishes. You can buy it in most natural food stores, ethnic/Middle Eastern specialty stores, and some supermarkets. I usually make it with dried cranberries or golden raisins, though I think chopped dried apricots, cherries, apples, or even sun-dried tomatoes would be nice.
