Here’s a couscous salad recipe I used recently, made by stealing ideas from about 3 other recipes and tweaking a bit of customising. Would eat again :-)

Ingredients:

• 1 cup couscous
• 1 cup water
• 200g cherry tomatoes
• 1/2 cup spring onion
• 1/4 red bell pepper
• 1/4 yellow bell pepper
• 1/4 green bell pepper
• 1/2 cup crumbed feta
• Dressing:
  • 75ml canola or olive oil
  • 25ml lemon juice
  • freshly ground salt and pepper

Directions:

1. Place couscous in a sealable bowl, boil the water, then add boiling water to couscous. Cover and allow to sit for 5 to 10 minutes. Once ready, fluff with a fork.
2. Cut tomatoes in half, finely chop peppers and spring onions, and mix into couscous.
3. Dressing: Thoroughly mix together oil and lemon juice, and mix in salt and pepper as required.
4. Before serving, mix in feta and dressing.
