Lemon Saffron Israeli Couscous
I used to buy this Lemon Saffron Israeli Couscous mix in a box from a supermarket, which is now gone out of business. My daughter Zoe loved it, so I recreated it. Israeli couscous is different from the North African version, which has a more fine-grained, fluffy texture. Israeli couscous has larger, pearl-like balls that cook up with a chewy texture that is similar to pasta.

Bulgur Pilaf with Almonds
One of my favorite grains is bulgur wheat, which has a light, nutty flavor. Bulgur is sometimes confused with cracked wheat, which is crushed wheat grain that has not been parboiled. Bulgur is cleaned, parboiled, dried, ground into particles and sifted into distinct sizes. Bulgur is more nutritious than rice and couscous, because it contains more fiber, more vitamins and minerals, and has a better glycemic index than white rice or couscous.
