Serving Size 6

Ingredients

  • 2 cups of cooked & chilled couscous follow directions on package
  • 1 diced yellow & orange bell pepper
  • 1 cucumber skinned, diced and de-seeded
  • 1/2 cup fresh diced cilantro
  • 1/4 cup EVOO Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1/4 cup Apple Cider vinegar
  • 3 limes

Instructions

  • Make sure that your couscous has a slight chill to it, not overly chilled though! We want it to absorb all these yummy flavors! During the chilling process in the refrigerator, I like to stir it once in while. This will prevent the clumping factor of the couscous.
  • With the limes, you want to cut them in half to squeeze the juice out of them. I suggest holding them upside down to catch a stray seed that might want to escape to freedom! Then, add the remaining ingredients.
  • Be sure to stir in everything with a "folding" technique so you don't make a big mess, but also evenly spreading out the flavors in the mixing process.

Notes

This salad is best eaten cold, so be sure to chill the salad in the fridge for about an hour!
