In a small saucepan, combine ½ cup plain cooked bulgur (if you don’t have leftover cooked bulgur, substitute ½ cup old-fashioned oats and add ¼ cup water and a pinch of salt to the pan), ½ cup unsweetened almond milk, 1 tsp. honey, and 1 tsp. finely grated orange zest; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until bulgur absorbs all liquid, about 10 minutes. Sprinkle with 1 Tbsp. toasted shelled pumpkin seeds (pepitas).
