Cherry Chipotle Salad is an explosion of flavor. It starts with the sweetness of the cherries and finishes with a chipotle kick. It's a great make-ahead dish.
Bring 2 cups of water and 1 cup of bulgur to a boil. Cover and simmer for 15 minutes. Drain if necessary. Set aside and allow to cool.
Combine chipotle paste ingredients and process in a blender or food processor until thick.
Mix cooked bulgur, oil, lime juice, and chipotle paste together. Stir until combined.
Add all remaining ingredients and stir to combine.
Store covered in the refrigerator for up to one week.
Notes
You can use rice or another whole grain instead of bulgur wheat.It's easier to mix this salad together in two stages as instructed.Add additional chipotle paste if you like it spicier.
