RECIPE DECISION NOTES
Is this the right meal for today?
Couscous makes a flexible salad base when you want grains without a long simmer. Feta and chopped vegetables provide the contrasting textures; this listed version is vegetarian rather than plant-based.
Plan the method before you start
Hydrate the couscous before folding in vegetables and cheese. Check the stock, couscous packet directions, and vegetarian-rennet feta rather than assuming every product follows the same preparation or ingredients.
