If you are a fan of grain bowls, this recipe is one to try! Four simple ingredients including quick-cooking bulgar, shredded carrots, sweet peas and store-bought harissa paste, come together in under 30 minutes for bowls of complex flavors and textures. If you are new to harissa sauce, it is an African chili pepper paste, spicy hot, made mostly of red bell peppers. The spices and herbs used vary some but main flavorings include coriander, cumin and hot chili peppers. In Israel, Morocco, Tunisia and Algeria, it is a main-stay condiment used in soups, stews and on wraps. Try this delicious dish for a vegetarian lunch option or serve with grilled chicken or shrimp for a larger meal.
