I love making this salad for shalosh seudos. I often make it with quinoa instead of couscous for a healthier version; either way, it’s always a huge hit.

1h 6-8
Easy Vegetarian Pescatarian Parve

Contains: Wheat, Gluten, Tree nuts, Soy

Directions

  1. In a small saucepan, heat oil over medium heat. Add couscous and toast for about three minutes, stirring frequently so that it doesn’t burn. Add two and a quarter cups of water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to simmer, cover, and cook for 10 minutes. Remove from heat and fluff with a fork. Set aside to cool.

  2. Blend dressing ingredients with an immersion blender until smooth.

  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine cooled couscous, avocado, edamame, peppers, red onion, cranberries, and sliced almonds. Add dressing and toss to combine.

Notes:
This salad can be prepped in advance. Just add the dressing and avocado right before serving.

It looks like there are black olives in the salad but it’s not listed in the ingredients. Please advise

I also thought they were olives at first, but if you look closely it's the cranberries.
