Quick-cooking bulgur (cracked wheat) is a great whole grain option for busy nights. Here, it teams up with black beans, tomatoes and smoky spices for a hearty dinner. To make it gluten-free, sub in quinoa for bulgur (it might need to simmer a few minutes more). Or, to go vegan, replace feta with a vegan cheese.
