Budget Betty.

It's "Budget Betty" week! All of the recipes this week come from the budget/slow cooker section of Betty Crocker's website. 

I picked this because it was different and involved an ingredient I'd never had before.

The original recipe is HERE.

~1 c uncooked bulgur wheat

~1/2 c dried lentils, sorted and rinsed

~1 t ground cumin

~1/4 t salt

~3 cloves garlic, finely chopped

~1 15 oz can whole kernel corn, drained

~2 (14 oz) cans veggie broth

~2 medium tomatoes, chopped

~1 c crumbled feta 

Combine wheat, lentils, cumin, salt, garlic, corn, and broth in crock pot.

Cover and cook on low for 4 hours.

Add tomatoes and mix.

Increase heat to high.

Cover and cook for 15 minutes.

Top with feta.

(The only change I made was skipping the olives because we don't DO olives. )

6 servings.

I'd never used bulgur wheat before, so I had no idea how this was going to turn out. Luckily, I did know where to find it at Safeway, (Go me!) It turned out to be pretty awesome. I'd stick this in the "if I was a vegetarian, I could totally live off of this" pile.
