I have served this delicious salad at a buffet brunch and just as easily as a side with brisket and roast chicken on Shabbat. It is very versatile.

Easy Vegetarian Pescatarian Parve

Contains: Gluten, Wheat, Tree nuts

Directions

  1. Whisk dressing ingredients together until smooth and put aside.

  2. Heat oil over medium-high heat in a large saucepan. Cook couscous, stirring gently, until golden, approximately four to five minutes. Add two cups water and salt and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium low. Cover and simmer until couscous is tender and the liquid is absorbed. Set aside to cool slightly.

  3. Mix together spinach, tomatoes, peppers, parsley, almonds and mint in a large bowl. Add the couscous and dressing. Toss gently until well-coated.
