Directions

1. In a pan with a lid, measure chicken broth or water and bring to a boil. Add couscous, cover and turn the heat off. Let sit for 10 minutes to absorb the fluid. Cool in a shallow dish.

 

2. Meanwhile, wash and prepare vegetables and place in a medium bowl.

 

3. To make dressing, mix oil, lemon juice, and oregano in a small bowl. Set aside.

 

4. When couscous is cool, add to vegetables. Toss to mix. Pour dressing over the salad mixture. Chill until ready to serve.
