Can bulgur be a good alternative to rice? It makes a beautiful pilaf when cooked in chicken broth and is low in calories. AND it keeps you full for a long time. It seems that if you drink water after eating bulgur, it expands in your stomach. What do you think?

    I find bulgur is a WONDERFUL alternative to rice. I have been able to substitute it easily into every recipe I have tried requiring rice.
