Chocolate-Covered Meal of the Day:
Blended Bulgur pudding, Pink Lady, and a Raw Tiramisu Bar.
Bulgur is one of my many favorite grains. The following link will help if you have no clue what recipes to make with bulgur, how to cook it, or what it even is: “All About Bulgur.”
Bulgur Breakfast Pudding
- 1 serving cooked bulgur or oatmeal (See: How to Cook Perfect Bulgur)
- 3-4 tbsp nondairy creamer (I like Silk Creamer)
- sweetener of choice, to taste
- fruit of choice, if desired (this time, I opted to put the fruit in post-blending)
- optional: cocoa powder for a Chocolate Cream Pie Bulgur Pudding!
Put the cooked bulgur in your blending gadget (such as a Magic Bullet short cup). Add everything else. Blend! Now add in some frozen blueberries, or any other fruit/nut butters/chocolate chips/add-ins you wish.
Variations I’ve tried:
1. Strawberry Shortcake (add frozen strwberries pre-blending
2. Chocolate Cream Pie (see optional ingredient, above)
3. Cinnamon-Raisin (add cinnamon and raisins, post-blending)
Oh this looks fabulous- I need to try it!! I don’t think I’ve met a grain I didn’t like- I guess my favorites are oats & wheat berries!
Oatmeal or quinoa. It’s a tough call.
Oh, I just want to pluck out those blueberries, they look sooo good!
Yum! ive had some amazing bulgur at restaurants but i have yet to attempt to make it at home…usually i just play around with couscous and quinoa but i think i want to expand my grains so bulgur is definitely on the list!

I’ve never tried bulgur.. hmm, sounds like I have to!
Oh wow.
I use bulgur as the “meaty” part of my vegan chili recipes (so good! Try it if you haven’t!) but never eaten it just as it is. I’m trying to tomorrow!
Currently, my favorite grain is oats. I’m on such a huge blended oatmeal kick currently. 🙂 Yummers.
I also am eating dates/bananas and asparagus daily lately. I get REALLY into a food and go crazy eating it every day for months at a time. Last couple months it was brussels sprouts and young thai coconuts. 😀
PS: Pink ladies are my favorites, too! Though I do really like some other (odd, short season, oh too shortly available) apples like Ginger Golds, Ginger Blush and Orin. Yum. Everything I REALLY like is super seasonal (satsumas, cherries, pluots, apriums …) or hard to find in normal stores (Barhi dates). Darn it.
Pink Ladies are my all-time favorite too, so far! And i am a big fan of Millet. Hope your easter was most enjoyable!
Yumlicious for sure! 😉
I don’t even like blueberries, and that STILL looks good to me LOL!
Okay, I need to try bulgar. I haven’t really tied too many grains, but I love quinoa (which isn’t really a grain, right…?) and wheatberries are yummy, yummy in the summertime on salads. 🙂
