Bulgur Breakfast with Brown Sugar & Dried Cranberries

Never tried bulgur? Well, don't be afraid to try this yummy dish. If you've had steel cut oatmeal, it's very similar to that. With a little added sweetness, this is the perfect heart-healthy breakfast, and it's LOADED with fiber. Just 1/4 cup of bulgar has 7 g fiber and only 0.5 g fat. It's perfect AND yummy!

1 cup bulgur (this serves 4, so you may want to cut it in half)
2 cups water
1 Tbs. Promise butter
1 Tbs. brown sugar or sugar subsitute
dried cranberries (or other fruit)

Bring bulgur and water to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cover and simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occassionally. Remove from heat and add butter, brown sugar, and cranberries. Enjoy!

This is a very filling breakfast, which I love! I like dried cranberries, but you can always change it to make it how you like it. You can even make this a savory side dish for dinner. It's versital, healthy, and good, too!
