- Add 1/3 cup (2/3 cup) water, and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) salt to a medium pot. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.
- Once boiling, stir in 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) bulgur until water returns to a boil. Cover and remove from heat.
- Let stand until bulgur is tender and liquid is absorbed, 16-18 min.
- Fluff bulgur with a fork.
- Meanwhile, core, then cut pepper into 1-inch pieces.
- Cut half the eggplant into 1/2-inch pieces (use all for 4 ppl). (TIP: Peel eggplant before cutting, if desired.)
- Add peppers, eggplant, half the Middle Eastern Spice Blend and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil to an unlined baking sheet. (TIP: We love to use olive oil in this recipe.) Season with salt and pepper, then toss to combine.
- Roast in the bottom of the oven, stirring halfway through, until tender, 10-12 min.
- Zest, then juice half the lemon (same for 4 ppl). Cut remaining lemon into wedges.
- Finely chop parsley.
- Cut tomato into 1/2-inch pieces.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat.
- When hot, add pine nuts to the dry pan. Toast, stirring often, until golden-brown, 4-5 min. (TIP: Keep your eye on them so they don't burn.)
- Transfer to a plate.
- Reheat the same pan (from step 3) over medium-high.
- When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then Beyond Meat® patties. Cook, breaking up patties into smaller pieces, until crispy, 5-6 min.**
- Carefully drain and discard excess fat.
- Add remaining Middle Eastern Spice Blend and 1/4 cup (1/3 cup) water. Cook, stirring often, until fragrant, 30 sec. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
- Meanwhile, add tomatoes, half the parsley, 1 tsp (2 tsp) lemon juice, 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil to a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine. (TIP: Add a pinch of sugar to tomatoes, if desired.)
- Combine mayo, half the lemon zest and 1 tsp (2 tsp) lemon juice in a small bowl. Set aside.
- When veggies and bulgur are done, fluff bulgur with a fork, then add veggies. Toss gently to combine.
- Divide bulgur-veggie mixture between bowls. Top with Beyond Meat®, then marinated tomatoes.
- Dollop lemony mayo over top, then sprinkle pine nuts and remaining parsley.
If you've opted to get Beyond Meat®, cook and plate it the same way as the beef, breaking up patties into smaller pieces, until crispy, 5-6 min.**
