Bulgur Salad with Olives

Hello Dear Friends,

The first day of Ramadan is already behind :) This month, I will try to share as many practical and nutritious recipes as I can. Apart from the menus I share day by day, I will include recipes that you can easily prepare for iftar or sahur.

Bulgur salad is one of these recipes… You can prepare it as a satisfying and nutritious alternative to the dishes you will prepare.

Of course, you can also prepare this recipe at home with only a few leftover ingredients. If you use olive slices of olives, the salt will be lower.

Love…
