Recipe Note

Couscous is traditionally served with a thick stew or rich soup.
Make it a One Bowl Meal by topping Vegetable Couscous with garbanzo beans or toasted almonds, sliced or diced protein, or a good ol' fried egg. Guild the lily with a drizzle of chermoula and a shake of Dukkah or sesame seed.
Be creative and add some other veggies such as steamed cauliflower or broccoli, baby bok choy or chard.
