Recipe type: Vegetables
Ingredients
  • 1 – 2 colored bell peppers – $0.33 each (discounted)
  • ½ – 1 red onion – $0.40 cents
  • 1 – 3 small zucchini – FREE from garden, but probably $1-2 if purchased in store
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or canola oil
  • ½ teaspoon cumin
  • 1 cup couscous – This is available in bulk $1.78/lb at Winco
  • 1¼ cup chicken stock – $0.50 – $1
  • Salt, pepper to taste
  • Optional – feta, kalamata olives
Instructions
  1. Throw quartered vegetables into a large bowl and coat with olive oil, cumin and a sprinkle of salt.
  2. Grill vegetables on grill, about 15-20 minutes, until they are charred and softened slightly.
  3. Meanwhile, cook couscous according to instructions. Basically you boil 1¼ cup chicken stock (or water) and once it starts boiling, add couscous, remove from heat and cover. Let stand for 5 minutes, then fluff with fork.
  4. Once vegetables are done, dice finely and mix in with cooked couscous.
  5. I would have loved to add some feta for a little extra flavor to this dish.
