CURRIED COUSCOUS SALAD WITH DRIED SWEET CRANBERRIES
For a picnic, there's no way I'm going to pass on making couscous. Instant Couscous so easy, it's almost embarrassing. The only "cooking" involved is boiling some water. I love it! Of course, you need to add some flavor to the couscous, but that's not hard. When you spike it with curry powder, fresh herbs, and a splash of orange and lemon juice, no one will be complaining about blandness. This dish tastes great at room temperature, and that makes it a picnic no-brainer because you can make it hours ahead of time.

Steps:
- Stir the couscous, cranberries, curry powder, salt, and sugar together in a heatproof bowl. Bring water (amount will be listed on package directions) to a boil and pour it over the couscous. Add the orange juice. Give it a big stir, cover the bowl tightly and let it stand, giving it a big stir once or twice, until the water is absorbed and the couscous is tender, about 5 minutes.
- Fluff up the couscous with a fork. Add the olive oil, scallions, parsley, lemon juice, and walnuts. Stir around until everything is distributed evenly throughout the couscous. Make up to 2 hours ahead of time and keep at room temperature until you're ready to serve. Check the seasonings just before you serve the salad and add salt and pepper, to taste.
- Note: To toast the walnuts, spread them out on a baking sheet and bake in a 400 degree F oven until they turn a shade darker, about 8 minutes.

I often create salads for summer using a variety of healthy, filling grains. This version with tender couscous is amped up by the bright flavors of oranges, cranberries, basil and a touch of fennel. -Kristen Heigl, Staten Island, New York

Steps:

- Add spring onions, bell pepper, cucumber, chickpeas and sultanas, stirring to combine. Season generously with salt and pepper.
- Mix dressing ingredients together, pour over couscous mixture and stir to combine.
- Using a sharp knife, remove the peel and pith from the oranges. Cut them into segments, removing all the membrane. You can catch any juice in a bowl and stir it through the salad.
- Arrange the lettuce leaves on plates, divide the couscous mixture between the plates and arrange the orange segments on top. Garnish with mint and serve.

ORANGE, RAISIN, COUSCOUS SALAD
Got this from a friend when I was at her house for lunch one day. It was very good and I love curry, I was impressed with this dish. I am always looking for a new and different way to use couscous. Cook time is for setting the raisins aside in the orange juice for 15 minutes and for chill time if you decide to chill it.
