T.J.'s salad

Felt today would be a good day to duplicate my favorite salad from Trader Joe's, turned out perfect! Used meftool instead of bulgur since I had so much left. Saving moneyyyyyyy!

1 cup dry bulgur
2 cups vegetable broth
1 roma tomato, seeded and chopped.
1/2 of a small eggplant
1 can of garbanzo beans rinsed and drained
1/2 cabbage thinly sliced
1/2 tsp cumin
Salt, pepper and cayenne

Dressing:
2tbs avocado oil
1 tbs apple cider vinegar
1 tsp balsamic vinegar
1/2 small lemon, juiced
Himalayan salt and pepper.

Put bulgur and broth in a saucepan with a pinch of salt and boil. Once boiling remove from heat and cover.

Once all of the water is absorbed add garbanzo beans and 1/2 tsp of cumin to pot and stir together, set aside to cool

Slice eggplant very thin, brush with oil and season with salt, pepper and cayenne. Broil on a baking sheet for 5 minutes.
Cut into small pieces once cool.

Combine all ingredients in a bowl along with chopped tomato and dressing ingredients and serve over shredded cabbage
