An almost endlessly adaptable and substantial summer salad of bulgur and beans in a pesto dressing
I am fearful of being found out with this recipe, because it follows a similar formula to the chopped salad from a month ago, but there’s a very good reason for that: it works and I love it. It has beans and a grain for softness and substance, as many summer vegetables as you can shake a stick at, and it can be dressed any number of ways, though here I’ve used fresh parsley and basil pesto. These kinds of recipes – the adaptable kind – are the ones that stand the test of time, in my kitchen at least.
