A very traditional Summer dish is Kisir. Every region in Turkey they make differently , some of them use dry onions , some of region doesn't boil bulgur, just soak, some of them use pomegranate juice. Mine is very different and very tasty . Turnip juice can be found in any international grocery store. I used " hot turnip juice" so I didn't need to use red pepper flakes . I also recommend you use corn,

I used to be a runner. One day middle of the run, I had my feet numb up to my knee. It was sciatica from a car accident years ago. Then because having problems with my Achilles, I started using a cane. Now I changed my diet completely... no more sugar or process foods. My recent recipes are vegetarian, I do not eat meat anymore! Also no sugar, flour and very low carbohydrate meals .This is my journey now. Good luck on yours! 😄✌️
