She prepared this for our lunch group when we worked together. It's good, quick, and very healthy. Ingredients:

1/3 cup bulgur (fine or medium grain) |
1/2 cup plain yogurt, non-fat |
1/3 cup scallion, chopped |
1/4 cup cilantro, chopped |
Directions:
1. In a dutch oven, over medium heat, add the vegetable stock, onions, carrot, jalapeno, garlic, chili powder and cumin. 2. Cover and simmer 5 - 7 minutes, or until the onions and carrots are soft. 3.
