Spinach and Bulgar Salad image

A healthy whole grain salad. While I honestly do not remember where this recipe came from it has recently come to my attention that it was created by Nan Kelley Lofas, Bainbridge Island, Washington and published in Sunset Magazine's 1998 annual cookbook.

This salad is okay, but I've had better. I think the dressing is a little too tart for my taste.

I'm not sure if I did something wrong, but my salad turned out really bland. Maybe I didn't use enough dressing?

I used quinoa instead of bulgur and it turned out great. This salad is so versatile.

This is a great salad to make ahead of time. It's even better the next day.

I'm not a huge fan of spinach, but this salad changed my mind. The bulgur and dressing really balance out the flavor of the spinach.

This salad is a refreshing and healthy side dish that is perfect for summer. The bulgur adds a chewy texture and the spinach provides a boost of nutrients.
