We experimented with a handful of some of the most nutritional foods we eat and threw them all together into what we call “a bowl full of healthy.” This salad really shows off the great pairing of our maple flavored balsamic and our blood orange extra virgin olive oil. We were invited to present our products at a tasting party last night and we served this to accompany our oil and vinegar products. The guests loved the flavors (and healthiness) of this dish and wanted the recipe. Thank you to Kristy and the Piper Glen ladies for a wonderful event and for encouraging us to share this dish with the broader OT community!

Your salad looked even more yummy in person! Was the bulgar cooked or “raw” as in tabouli – I have both directions on my bag of wheat?
Hi Penny,
As in tabouli…..I used one cup of bulgur wheat and one cup of hot water. I let it sit for an hour before adding the walnuts, celery and craisins. Enjoy!
