Bulgur (cracked wheat), garbanzos (chick peas) and soy nuts combine to provide complete protein which tastes as good or even better than Spanish rice.
Heat oil in a frypan. Add carrot, onion and garlic. Stir-cook over medium heat 5 min. Add bulgur. Continue to stir-cook about 3 min until bulgur is coated with pan juices.
Add broth, tomatoes, paprika, tarragon, salt and pepper. Heat to a boil; reduce heat, cover and simmer 30 min. Stir in celery, green pepper, chick peas and soy nuts; cover and simmer 15 min longer until bulgur is tender and juices are absorbed.
Turn off heat, let stand, covered, 10 min. Fluff with a fork. Makes 8 cups.
