Scallion Couscous
Couscous is actually a type of
semolina (wheat) in the pasta family that’s a great choice for busy
would-be gourmets because it cooks up so quickly. Play around with
various spices and ingredients. Try adding coriander, fresh basil or
peas to the couscous – this dish is supremely versatile.
