HOW IS THIS HEALTHY?

The Moroccan Cod & Bulgur Salad is a nutritious meal that combines high-quality protein from cod with the wholesome goodness of bulgur. Cod is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, essential for heart health, and provides a lean source of protein, aiding muscle repair and satiety. Bulgur groats offer complex carbohydrates and fiber, promoting digestive health and sustained energy levels. The spices used, including turmeric and cumin, not only enhance flavor but also have anti-inflammatory properties. This salad is a delightful way to enjoy a balanced meal full of vibrant flavors and essential nutrients.
