Good Substitutes For Bulgur?


Minette

Recommended Posts

Minette Contributor

I make a couple of vegetarian stews/chilis (we're not vegetarian but I cook a lot of veggie things) that use bulgur to give them some body. What kind of non-gluten grain would be good for this? I was thinking quinoa, but wondered if there were other options. It needs to be something fairly sturdy. Rice would obviously work too, but one gets sick of rice....

How about buckwheat? Not sure it would work well but I found up Wolff's Kasha at my local Wal-Mart (it was in the section with Jewish foods).

Lundberg also makes some interesting rice blends. I've had their Wild Blend and it's good.

For bulgar based salads such as tabbouleh, my go to is quinoa.

I also frequently bulk things up with lentils.

I found a roasted brown rice couscous and everyone loves it. I think it was Lundberg.

It wasn't "ricey" - it was very couscous-y.

You can also use shredded cauliflower or zucchini in the salad-y recipes that call for bulgar.

I am mostly paleo, so I tend to go for the non grain alternatives.

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶

      Thank you so much for the information and kind message! Reading this transformed how I’ve been viewing my efforts and progress. Guess there’s still a lot to celebrate and also heal 😌  Yes, I’ve been taking it! Just recently started taking a multivitamin supplement and separated vitamin D! I also took chewable Iron polymaltose for ferritin deficiency 2 months ago but was unable to absorb any of it.  Thank you again! Hearing such gentle words from the community makes my body and heart more patient and excited for the future.
