Is cooking the last thing you want to do after a busy day? For some it can be like that most days and I have my days as well. This awesome little dish is really quick to make. It’s not only delicious, it’s super healthy for you as well.
If there is one tip I give you is to make sure that you cook your couscous as per your packet instructions. You don’t want to let it get too dense and make it too hard to finish eating. This is a very moreish meal to me and I can get a little greedy with this dish. I always go back for seconds & love putting more tahini on it. Enjoy!
