Here is a summer favorite for a picnic, lunch or a light dinner that comes from Cooking Light Magazine.
1-1/4 cups water
1 cup uncooked couscous
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon honey
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1-1/2 cups coarsely chopped nectarines (about 3 medium)
1/2 cup coarsely chopped spinach
1/4 cup thinly sliced green onions
1 (15-1/2-ounce) can chickpeas (garbanzo beans), drained
Nectarine slices (optional)
1. Bring water to a boil in a medium saucepan; gradually stir in couscous.
Remove from heat; cover and let stand 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork; cool.
2. Combine lime juice and next 5 ingredients (juice through coriander) in a
large bowl; stir well with a whisk. Add couscous, chopped nectarines, spinach,
onions, and chickpeas; toss well. Garnish with nectarine slices, if desired.
Yield: 6 servings (serving size: 1 cup).
