Notes
- I use RiceSelect Organic Whole Wheat Couscous - click here to see it.
- I measured out four 1 cup servings and still has some leftover so I’m counting a serving as a cup but it’s a little more. If using this as a side dish you could easily get 8-10 half cup servings out of it. I ate 2 cups and called it lunch.
