Couscous is such a wonderful grain to work with because it is so versatile. Whether you add savory shrimp and rosemary, or fruit and tart juice, the result will be a delicious and healthy dish your family will enjoy at any time of the day. Serve this fun salad as a side with lean protein such as chicken or turkey, and you’ve got yourself a light meal full of flavor. Because it’s such a beautiful salad, colorful and fun to eat, kids love to spoon this salad into their mouths and ask for seconds. I guarantee it.
