Whole Grain Couscous
Posted in: Food Finds |
Do you know what Couscous is? Wait, let’s back up, do you know how to pronounce Koos-Koos? Well I’ll be honest, I was a Couscous virgin until tonight. I heard great things, versatile, light, fluffy, easy, you name it, it was said about couscous. So when I came across a whole grain couscous you know I HAD to try it. And all those things people said about it are SO true. The only way I can describe the small pasta is fun!
Using equal parts liquid to Couscous it literally takes 5 minutes to prepare. Bring the liquid (and I say liquid because you can use anything, water, broth, juice, stock, whatever!) to a boil, remove from heat, add the couscous and cover. That’s it! I can see it as a side dish, in soups, stews are even the main course, like my leftover turkey Couscous and Stuffed Peppers.
So I’m late to the couscous party but I know some of you have been using it for some time. What is your favorite way to prepare couscous?

Couscous is really good plan with some soy sauce or stir fried veggies.
I really love couscous as well. I like to prepare mine with chicken broth and once done, add in a little onion, mushroom, and garlic cooked in EVOO. Delish!
