Couscous Veggie Salad
INGREDIENTS
- Cooking Time: 10 mins
- Servings: ~6 1 cup servings
- Preparation Time: 15 mins
- 2 cups dry couscous
- 2 1/2 cups water or vegetable broth
- 1 15 oz can of corn
- 1 15 oz can of black beans
- 1 bunch of cilantro (cleaned and chopped)
- 1 white onion
- salt and pepper to taste
- Sriracha
- Rice Vinegar
DIRECTIONS
- Bring the water or broth to a boil, then add couscous to saucepan, and lower heat. Stir and fluff the couscous. Once most of the liquid is absorbed (~1 min), turn the heat off and cover the pan. Let the couscous sit for about five mintues. While you are waiting, drain the corn and beans and place into a bowl. Chop the cilantro and onion, place into bowl. Once the couscous is ready, mix into other ingredients. Add salt and peper to taste. I add a little rice vinegar for a light dressing and some sriracha for heat. It is also very good with some of your favorite salsa- if you want to add more moisture. Serve warm or cold.
