A Perfect Cous Cous

I have written about one of my cous cous recipes, now it is time for a variation. Like I said before, cous cous is so simple to make. It is great to have on hand. I believe it gets better with time. I prefer to make my cous cous the night before or the morning before the night I am serving it. I just feel like the flavors are more absorbed. This cous cous recipe, that I just created, might be one of my new favorites!



Start with some whole wheat cous cous, bring the water to a boil and dump it in. Let it sit. While it is sitting chop up some beets and crumble some feta. After the cous cous has been sitting for about five minutes, fluff it a little. Then add a little bit of olive oil, salt, pepper, the beets, the feta, some hummus of your choice, a little of sabra's eggplant, and a splash of tahini. I had never tried this combo of flavors; but, it is a winner. There is a slight nutty taste and the beets add a little sweetness. I recommend trying this recipe immediately. I didn't put specific amounts of ingredients for you to use because I eyeballed it and kept tasting it, until it was to my liking. But, don't put too much tahini. I think I put about a little less than half of a tbs.
