Or bring 3 cups of water or chicken broth, and 1 Tbsp oil to a boil. Then stir in 1 ½ cups couscous. Cover and remove from heat. Allow all liquid to absorb (usually about 6 minutes) then fluff with fork.

Just found your guys’ blog somehow…can’t remember how anymore. Anyway, I LOVE cous cous! This recipe looks delicious.
Ok, talented cousins of mine…you all have inspired me to branch out. We had guests over tonight and everyone loved the cous cous!
I just made this salad for dinner. We haven’t even sat down to dinner and my husband has already had a huge helping. I can’t stop sneaking spoonful after spoonful, and my neighbnor already wants the recipe. THANK YOU, for a fabulously refreshing summer salad. Hopefully we are still hungry for the halibut steaks I am grilling.
This looks delicious – I can’t wait to try it. I love unusual recipes that have yummy ingredients!
Wow, Melanie, this looks so gourmet and really fascinating! I’m going to make it for sure but I am not making any guarantees my husband will like it – at least I’ll be able to eat it all!
