Green beans, bulgur, feta and pomegranate with sunflower seed dressing

Tender green beans, filling bulgur wheat, sharp pomegranate  and creamy feta join forces in this filling summer salad from food writer Claire Thomson.

Claire says: “Bulgur wheat is easy to cook and incredibly versatile: casual handfuls of chewy cooked bulgur give salads extra heft; it sinks and swells in a flavoursome soup; and it brings extra texture to a pilaf. Use bulgur to stuff vegetables, too, or serve as a substitute for rice.”

Recipe taken from The Veggie Family Cookbook by Claire Thomson (Quadrille £30) and tested by delicious.
