Full Circle Market Bulgur & Quinoa Blend
What it is
This is a pre-portioned blend of two popular ancient grains, bulgur and quinoa. Bulgur is cracked wheat that has been parboiled, dried, and ground. Together, they offer a satisfying texture and a nutty flavor profile, making them a versatile pantry staple for quick and wholesome meals.
How people cook with it
This grain blend is excellent for adding substance and flavor to a variety of dishes, from simple side dishes to more complex main courses.
- As a side dish
- In grain bowls
- As a stuffing base
- In salads
To prepare, simply combine the contents of the package with the recommended amount of water or broth in a saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer, cover, and cook until the liquid is absorbed and the grains are tender. This usually takes about 15-20 minutes. Fluff with a fork before serving. It can also be cooked according to package directions and then added to soups or stews for extra body and texture.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike plain quinoa, it offers the slightly chewy texture and earthy notes of bulgur, creating a more complex and satisfying grain combination.

How to keep the rest
After opening, store any unused portion in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. Ensure the container is well-sealed to maintain freshness and prevent moisture absorption. This will help keep the grains from becoming stale or developing off-flavors.
