When a rainbow of colours suddenly appears at dinnertime, there will be smiles from one side of the table to the other. Bright peppers and green-skinned cucumber deliver a refreshing crunch, embedded in a warm bulgur salad. As nifty as it is nutritious, it’s tossed with a squirt of lemon and the crunch of almonds. Pan-seared shrimp boosts its pink hue and naturally sweet flavour with a tangy sumac spice blend.

Cook the bulgur
In a medium pot, combine the bulgur, 1 ½ cups water and a big pinch of salt; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer, 6 to 8 min., until the bulgur is tender and the water has been absorbed. Fluff the bulgur.

Cook the shrimp
Pat the shrimp dry with paper towel (remove the shells from the tails if desired); season with ¾ of the spices and S&P. In a large pan (non-stick if possible), heat a drizzle of oil on medium. Add the shrimp* and cook, 1 to 2 min. per side, until opaque and cooked through.
