I love these as meal prep! They are super easy to grab and go and last all week.
Ingredients
- ⅓ cup bulgur wheat
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon white balsamic vinegar
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- ⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 can chickpeas, rinsed and drained 15 ounces
- 4 ounces cooked turkey breast cubed
- 4 ounces mozzarella cheese cubed
- ½ cup grape tomatoes quartered
- ½ cup chopped English cucumber
- ¼ cup chopped red onion
- 6 tablespoons chopped mixed nuts
Instructions
- In medium saucepan, bring 1 cup water to boil over medium-high heat. Stir in bulgur wheat. Reduce heat to medium; cook until bulgur is tender, or about 10 to 12 minutes. Drain off any remaining liquid. Spread bulgur in a single layer on a rimmed baking pan; transfer to freezer to chill for 10 minutes or until cool.
- Meanwhile, make the vinaigrette: In a small bowl, whisk ogether mustard, vinegar, salt and pepper. While whisking, slowly drizzle in oil until all oil is incorporated.
- Divide vinaigrette between 4 pint-size jars. Divide cooled bulgur wheat over vinaigrette. Layer remaining ingredients, ending with Tuscan Summer Mix.Top with lids and refrigerate up to 5 days.
Notes
- Layer the ingredients in the order given so that things don't get mushy.
