| I love couscous, and i love it even more now that they make whole wheat couscous. i haven't seen it in my local grocery store, but i found it at the organic store here in town. but i'm sure at larger grocery stores they would carry it.
|
|
|
|
| I use chicken broth instead of water also but I usually just add some chopped up onion and red bell pepper. Very quick and almost always have those all on hand.
|
|
|
|
| I think I might finally give couscous a try....it's always been one of those things that looks weird to me so I don't want to try it.You guys are making it sound yummy!

| You know what else is good is left over couscous that you have in the frig. and you use that to stuff peppers instead of rice. it comes out great
|

Our favorite add-ins are:
1)almonds and dried cranberries
2)broccoli, peas, whatever other veggies are lying around.
|
|
|
|
| I enjoy stir frying with it--add chicken and veggies to it to make a complete meal.

Love the couscous. Favorite additions:
1) mushrooms
2) garlic, garlic and more garlic
3) pistachios (or almonds) and raisins
|
|
|
|
| I also use chicken broth and I always add frozen mixed vegetables to the water, let it boil for a minute or three, turn off the heat, dump in the couscous, cover, and then five minutes later I have yummy couscous and veggies! It's also really good with mushrooms in it!

|
| I second the low-sodium chicken broth.

| I like to use low sodium chicen or vegatable stock instead of water. It seems to add more flavor .

| you use your basic grain formula for couscous - 1 part grain, 2-3 parts water, cook until tender

| It's usually a 1:1 ratio for couscous.
