Salad definitely doesn’t have to be boring. And this recipe is clear proof of that. The foundation is bulgur, which is a great source of carbs. But we’ve also added vegetables, turkey and Balkan cheese. This makes for a flavourful dish with the perfect balance of all macronutrients. Ideal as a nutritionally balanced lunch or dinner.

Method:
Start by preparing the bulgur. Rinse it and put it in a small pot with 300 ml of water. Salt, bring to a boil and cook until softened for about 15 minutes. Do not forget to stir it occasionally so that it does not stick to the bottom. Meanwhile, prepare the other ingredients for the salad. Wash and chop the cucumber and tomatoes. Just cut the cherry tomatoes in half and the cucumber into small cubes. Then cut the olives in half and finely chop the sun-dried tomatoes and the Balkan cheese.
Place the prepared ingredients in a bowl and add the cooked bulgur, from which you have drained the water. Drain water from the turkey meat as well. Then shred it and add it and the chopped basil to the other ingredients in the bowl. Mix everything together, add salt to taste and serve.
Our tip: If you like a lighter dish, you can serve the salad with a dressing in the form of yoghurt with spices, sour cream or light mayonnaise.
