Bulgur fig hot cereal

A tasty way to start your day with fiber! Fiber helps you stay full longer and can help regulate blood glucose levels. As seasons change, swap figs for fresh berries, bananas or both.

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups vanilla almond milk
1/2 cup dry bulgur
2 dried figs
optional toppings:* pinch of salt, sliced fresh figs, cherries, toasted almonds

2. Portion into 2 bowls and fluff with a fork. Garnish with fresh figs, cherries and/or toasted almonds, if desired.
