WHOLE WHEAT COUSCOUS WITH VEGETABLES AND CHICK PEAS



Whole Wheat Couscous With Vegetables and Chick Peas image

Created this delicious recipe because I didn't want to prepare the couscous by itself. As always, I used sodium free chicken broth packets mixed with water and Mrs. Dash. I also used homemade peas. So if you use canned...use low sodium and be sure to drain and rinse them.

Couscous, which is actually a type of tiny pasta, makes an almost-instant side dish. Happily, the whole-wheat variety is just as fast to prepare as regular couscous. Lemon zest is a delicious accent to nutty Parmesan in this Italian-inspired couscous. -- Reipe via Eatingwell.com
