My weeknight couscous

A couple nights ago, I came home from a karate class and I was hungry for dinner, and didn't know what to have.  I looked in the refridge for something but I didn't see anything appealing.

Then I glanced over and saw what looked like a perfect amount of couscous sitting on the counter.  So I cooked it up with some parsley and quartered cherry tomatoes.  After that I put it in a bowl...
Just to make it pretty for the photo,  added a fresh basil leaf.  If you decide to try this out you can add your own personal twists.  Enjoy!

    Thumbs up!

    Do you have a preference between Israeli and Moroccan cous cous? I am having a hard time deciding, but right now I think I will have what you're having.

    I personally like the smaller (Moroccan) couscous, but that is just my opinion. I hope you enjoy whichever one you choose to have.

    My parents also really like the Israeli couscous salad they sell at Costco--it has cherry tomatoes along with feta, cilantro, parsley, mint, and onion.

    I have not had that salad, but that sounds good, too! I like the cous cous salad at Whole Foods. I forget what is in it, but I know there is citrus, dried cranberries, and walnuts.

    As for the Moroccan, I like it because it is so versitile (actually, they both are) with the type of liquid that you cook it in.

    We used vegetable stock to cook this version
