Bulgur with Leeks and Swiss Chard

Vegetarian Times Issue: October 1, 2006   p.33

Vegan 30 minutes or fewer

This one-pot meal is a hearty, satisfying way to welcome the cool breezes of fall. If you can’t find Swiss chard, spinach also works well.

Directions

  1. Heat oil in large pot over medium-high heat. Add leeks and chard stems, and cook 4 minutes, or until softened, stirring often. Add mushrooms, and cook 5 minutes, or until softened, stirring occasionally. Add garlic and chard leaves. Cover, and cook 5 minutes, or until leaves are wilted, stirring occasionally. Season with salt and pepper.
  2. Stir in broth and bulgur. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium low, cover, and simmer 10 minutes, or until liquid is absorbed and bulgur is tender. Remove pan from heat, and serve.

Sounds really good... Does it get better then next day? I'm always afraid dishes with greens aren't as good as leftovers.
