  • 1 cup Whole Wheat Pearl Couscous
  • 1-1/3 cups Water

Notes

This recipe lends itself well to variations. You can add 1 cup cooked, diced chicken for a heartier main dish meal. Add a drained 3 oz jar of pimentos for color or a chopped bell pepper. Garnish with chopped peanuts.

I have already made this recipe twice. My family loves it. I used half the sesame oil that the recipe calls for to cut back on fat and calories. It was a success.
