The recipe, step by step
Preheat your oven to 160°C.
Start cooking the bulgur in salted water in a large saucepan.
While the bulgur is cooking, get the butternut squash and beets.
For the butternut, peel it and cut wide slices. Empty the centre and place the half-moons of butternut seasoned with salt, pepper and zaatar, on a baking sheet covered with parchment paper.
Wrap the beets in aluminium foil.
Bake butternut squash and beets for one hour.
When the bulgur is cooked, add lemon juice, olive oil, salt, pepper and cilantro. Mix and keep aside.
In a pan, toast the pumpkin seeds over high heat.
Dress the salad with the seasoned bulgur, pieces of cooked butternut squash and beets, crumbled goat cheese, grilled pumpkin seeds, pomegranates and a few sprigs of arugula.
Tasty!

Add the butternut squash and beets on top of the seasoned bulgur.

Crumble your piece of goat cheese for more yumminess and freshness.

Finish with a handful of pomegranates for a pop of colour.
