I was looking for some kind of pilaf recipe online and there were a ton of recipes on pinterest, but none of them quite did it for me. I spotted one in a magazine (not sure of the magazine) and took note of the ingredients which had a good combo of salty and sweet and then just kind of did my own thing from there.
Ingredients
- 1 c. tri-color (just for fun) Israeli couscous
- 1/2 c. salted roasted almonds (you can find them at the store or make them yourself), chopped
- 1 tsp. olive oil
- 2 Tbs. chopped fresh parsley
- 1/4-1/2 c. dried cranberries
Directions
- Cook the couscous according to directions.
- When the couscous is done put everything into a serving bowl and toss to combine.
- Serve warm or cold.

YUM...again...and I have Isreali Couscous in the pantry...
Dumb question from the non-cook here . . . is the 1 C. of couscous before it's cooked or after? And is it better warm or cold? I've had cold couscous salad . . . . am wondering how it would taste warm. Your mom raved about it, so have to know how you served it! :)
Kate...cook 1 c. of dried couscous. I served it at room temp and this was the first time I had made it.
[ Smiles ] Most impressive!
Thanks for the lovely vegan recipe, Maria.
This is something I'm going to have to try...thanks for the recipe!
