Ready to be served. |
1 cup uncooked couscous
1 1/4 cups chicken or vegetable broth
3 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp lime juice
1 tsp wine vinegar
1 tbsp maple syrup or other sweetening ingredient
1/2 tsp cumin
4 green onions, chopped
1 red/yellow pepper, chopped
1 cup corn kernels
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
1 - 15 ounce can black beans or other beans
salt and pepper to taste
DIRECTIONS:
Bring broth to boil in a sauce pan and stir in the couscous. Cover the pot, remove from the burner and let stand for five minutes. Let cool and while cooling, fluff the couscous and break up any chunks. In a large bowl, add the onions, pepper, corn and cilantro. Mix the ingredients. Add the couscous and mix well. In a separate small bowl, mix together the olive oil, lime juice, vinegar, maple syrup and cumin.
Add the oil mixture to the salad and toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper if required. Serves 5 to 6.
