Dd and I have this for lunch all the time. When we have hummus for dinner, we make it a feast. Dh has Chicken with feta and spinach, recipe HERE
I have a Quorn breaded faux chicken and we all have couscous with zucchini, yellow squash, red onion, and red bell pepper.
Thanks for sharing this! Hubby and I love Greek food (it's pretty much the only reason Greece is top on our travel list!) I haven't had couscous in so long--thanks for reminding me of its existence. It was a stable for me back in college along with ramen noodles :) Keep up all the awesome recipes...I'm loving this new blog!
ReplyDeleteGreece is next on our travel list, right after London!
ReplyDeleteThanks about the blog! It's nice to talk about things other than clothes, cheaper too lol
Thanks for the hummus recipe minus tahini, definitely one of those things that's easy, cheap and better to make your own instead of buying. As a "flexitarian" (seafood, don't rock the boat i.e. have to do BBQ events for work) living with a carnivore, interested in continued notes, a post about your experiences meat substitute products, good, bad, ugly.
