BULGUR WHEAT SALAD WITH BLACK BEANS AND PEACHES, LIME VINAIGRETTEAUTO DRAFT

Steps:

• Place bulgar in a medium size bowl and add enough boiling water to cover the surface of the grains by at least 2 inches. (its about a 3 to 1 ratio) Let the bulgar soak for 10 to 15 minutes, just until tender. Drain and spread the grains out on a tea towel to air dry while you prepare the rest of the ingredients.
• Peel and dice the peaches into 1 inch cubes. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a sauté pan. When hot, add the cubes and sauté until the fruit softens and they loose their raw look, about 1 to 2 minutes, but not more. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
• For the vinaigrette, combine the lime juice, zest, vinegar, sugar, salt and pepper in a small bowl and whisk until sugar and salt have dissolved. Add the olive oil and whisk to combine, set aside.
• Put the bulgur, chopped herbs, black beans and scallions in a salad bowl. Add the sautéed peaches and 3/4's of the vinaigrette and toss to combine. Taste and add more vinaigrette if necessary. The salad can hold for several hours at this point - the flavours will only improve. Just before serving, toss the spinach leaves into the salad, or dress the leaves separately and use as a garnish.
