1/2 cup Longo’s Apricots, sliced

1/4 cup Longo’s Raisins

1/4 cup Longo’s Dried Cranberries

1/2 cup Longo’s Chickpeas, drained and rinsed

2 tbsp Longo’s Tahini

1 clove garlic, minced

1 1/2 tsp Longo’s Pure Liquid Honey

1/2 lemon, juiced

1 tbsp water

Pinch salt

Directions

Mix together pearl couscous, apricots, raisins, dried cranberries and chickpeas in large bowl.

Whisk together tahini, garlic, honey, lemon juice, water and salt in small bowl. Pour sauce over couscous mixture and mix until evenly coated. Serve cold or at room temperature.

How to Cook Pearl Couscous: Boil 1 cup of couscous in small pot with 1 1/2 cups of water over high heat. Reduce heat to a simmer; cover and cook for about 10 minutes until the water is absorbed and the couscous is soft. (1 cup of raw couscous will Yield about 3 cups cooked.)

A Dash of Advice

While this couscous is delicious on its own, you can up the protein by adding in any leftover cubed chicken, steak or fish you have on hand.
