What a wonderful meal!
My boyfriend just got back from hiking in the Sierra Nevada and this meal set the mood for great stories of his adventures. The buglur was delicious it was my first time trying it and it's a little harder than rice but a nice change. I couldn't find it in Publix so I had to go to Wholefoods Market to get it. I really hope that more recipes come online using the buglur and the golden raisins because I have a big bag of them and I don't like to waste. Please let me know if anyone has any ideas.
I thought it was a lovely meal :)
