Cooking Steps

Cook bulgur
1
  • Before starting, preheat the broiler to high. Wash and dry all produce.
  • To a medium pot, add 3/4 cup (1 1/2 cups) water and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) salt. Cover and bring to a boil over high.
  • Once boiling, add bulgur. Cover, remove from heat and let stand for 15-16 min, until bulgur is tender and liquid is absorbed.
Broil peppers and zucchini
2
  • Meanwhile, core, then cut pepper into 1/4-inch pieces.
  • Quarter zucchini lengthwise, then cut into 1/4-inch quarter-moons.
  • To a foil-lined baking sheet, add peppers, zucchini and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to combine. 
  • Broil in the middle of the oven for 8-10-min, stirring halfway through, until tender.
Prep

  • Cut tomato into 1/4-inch pieces.
  • Drain, then roughly chop olives.

  • In a small bowl, combine mayo, hummus and 2 tsp (4 tsp) water. Season with salt and pepper.
Cook beef
4
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium.
