  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the shallots, cover, and cook until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the bulgur and stir to combine. Stir in the stock and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and season with salt and pepper to taste. Cove and simmer until the bulgur is tender and the liquid is absorbed, about 15 minutes.
  • Remove from the heat and stir in the tomatoes. Cover and let stand for 5 minutes. Stir in the mint, cover and let stand for a further 5 minutes before serving.

<p>I love, love, love to cook. Most of all I love to cook for friends and family because it is such an awesome feeling to bring the people that mean the most to me through such an essential ingredient for life... FOOD! I am a vegan the switch opened up the world of cooking in a way I never imagined! People constantly ask me 'what do you eat?' and I can confidently tell them that if they were to leave meat and dairy behind they would find an enormous world of food out there that they have never heard of! And it is all more delicious and nourishing than animal products. My ultimate goal is to shake my 9 to 5 office job and become a caterer or open my own restaurant and I am forever dreaming of my big lottery win that will allow me to do this.</p>
