Couscous with Lime-Scallion sauce

by Irene Lindvall


I started regularly cooking couscous a year ago. I'm not sure what took me so long but I'm glad I got into it. I prefer the Near East brand (cheapest at Target - weird I know) and the roasted garlic with olive oil is my favorite. Some of my favorite things to add into the couscous are shredded carrots, snap peas, avocado, cilantro, green onions, lime and shrimp. This recipe contained an interesting mixture and since it was meant to be a side dish, I decided to add some sautéed shrimp to make it a quick dinner.

Things I learned from this recipe:

Mixing the ingredients together with lime juice instead of topping with squeezed lime is a lot better.

Would I make this recipe again?:

Sure
