Greek Couscous

 

I'm all about side dishes, This particular one is a favorite of mine. This is also great for summer time!

 

 

So before I go into this recipe, I'm sure some of you are asking "What is Couscous?"

Couscous is PASTA!  It is made with Semolina Flour just like Spaghetti or Macaroni. Since it is so tiny it literally cooks in minutes which is why I like it so much. I can make this meal in 10 minutes

 

 

What you will need

1 Cup Couscous

pepperoncinis

kalamata olives

Garlic

Frozen Corn

Feta Cheese

Greek Seasonings (I used dried garlic basil)

1 Cup Water

 

 

This is a TO TASTE recipe. Don't like olives? Dont add them! =)

 This is also great with fresh Tomatos! I just didn't have any on hand

 

I also season with salt, pepper, cajun seasonings and butter

but again, everyone has different tastes.
