This is not a recipe but more of an idea combining a few things: The Fishers love Coucous and it is a quick and easy side and I am trying to do a salad and another vegetable with dinner. I use to buy ti couscous mixes, but they get to be expensive and some are very high in salt. So, I started buying the bulk whole grain couscous and using chicken stock and olive oil instead of water and butter. I have toasted pine nuts and added them. Tonight I sauted onions and peppers with some italian seasoning. Then I added two cups of chicken stock and let it boil, added one cup of couscos and turned the burner off and let it go to work. When the liquid evaported I fluffed it. It was a hit, even Joey ate it, with his hands, of course, but he and Scott polished it off.
I thought I would share this idea for a quick and healthy side dish with My StrollerFit Moms. Tomorrow we have StrollerFit and then the last pot luck I am hosting before the baby. I will post any pot luck recipes that get emailed to me. Enjoy the Couscous.
