CURRIED COUSCOUS WITH CHICKPEAS



Curried Couscous With Chickpeas image

This makes a great lunch or snack and is low-fat. Great for bringing to work or school and can be eaten hot or cold. I like it with Braggs sprinkled on top (but I'm known to add braggs to any rice or couscous dish for extra flavour!). Could also add some cooked chicken to make a main dish, maybe with a side green salad or additional steamed veggies.

CRANBERRY COUSCOUS



Cranberry Couscous image

Although it looks like a grain, couscous is actually a type of pasta. The couscous pellets cook very quickly due to their small size. You'll find it near the Middle Eastern or Mediterranean foods.

CRANBERRY COUSCOUS SALAD



Cranberry Couscous Salad image

I got this delicious recipe from a co-worker after she brought it to a potluck. It was definitely one of the hits of the day! Originally from Southern Living. Update Dec '09: I've now made this multiple times since originally posting; it is one of my absolute favorites for a potluck! I usually double it but find that if you cook double the amount of couscous at once, it can get gummy, so I cook it in two separate batches (cook one then use the same pot to do the next), then add the rest of the (doubled) ingredients.

ORANGE-CRANBERRY COUSCOUS



Orange-Cranberry Couscous image

Quick, delicious accompaniment to chicken or pork. My husband and I eat way more of this than we should every time I fix it and it is a good way to get fruit into your diet. This makes an impressive side dish that looks like you spent a lot of effort cooking. The herbs that I use is a mix called McCormick's French Country Herbs Roasting Rub, but RecipeZaar doesn't recognize it so I couldn't name it in the ingredients.

Categories     Egg Free

Time 25m

Yield 5-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (8 ounce) box couscous
1 1/4 cups chicken broth or 1 1/4 cups stock
3/4 cup orange juice (may increase to 1 cup and decrease broth by 1/4 cup)
1 teaspoon herbs (if you can't find the McCormick's French Country Herbs, then use Herbes de Provence)
1 tablespoon parsley, dried
salt & pepper
1/4 cup onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons butter
1 cup dried cranberries

Steps:

  • Bring broth, juice and seasonings to a boil in a medium saucepan.
  • In a small skillet, heat the olive oil and butter, add the onion and saute until onions are almost glassy then add the garlic and finish cooking the onions until transparent. Add contents of skillet (including the oil to the broth mixture).
  • When this mixture comes to a boil, turn off heat, pour in couscous and cranberries, stir slightly and cover with lid. Let sit for 15 minutes and then fluff with a fork or spoon. Serve with your choice of chicken or pork.
  • CHECK MY DESCRIPTION FOR THE TYPE OF HERBS.

THE 16 BEST CHICKPEA RECIPES - THE SPRUCE EATS

From thespruceeats.com
  • Falafel Pita Sandwiches. Falafel is a classic dish made with chickpeas or fava beans and spices, and it's one of the most popular Middle Eastern street foods.
  • Pasta Salad With Chickpeas and Spinach. Add chickpeas and spinach to pasta salad for a delicious twist. Any shape of pasta will do, but smaller, rounder types soak up the sauce best.
  • Loaded Moroccan-Style Chickpea Pilaf. This loaded Moroccan-style chickpea pilaf uses chickpeas, red or yellow bell pepper, zucchini, sweet potato, and a variety of spices you might already have in your collection.
  • Snackable Roasted Chickpeas. Umami snackable roasted chickpeas make a great replacement for potato chips, nuts, or other snack foods. Just 15 to 20 minutes in the oven gives the legumes a crispy skin and tender center, perfect for eating by the handful or throwing on a salad, couscous dish, or as part of a roasted vegetable rice bowl.
  • Grilled Cheese With Beets and Chickpeas. Forget American cheese and white bread. This next-level grilled cheese with beets and chickpeas makes a falafel-like patty that gets topped with melty feta for a Middle Eastern take on everyone's favorite simple sandwich.
