I took an old Rice Pilaf recipe and made it with couscous instead – delish!
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 large head of finely chopped cauliflower
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup home-made or reduced-sodium chicken broth
1 teaspoon freshly grated orange zest
1/4 cup orange juice
1/4 cup currants
2/3 cup whole-wheat couscous
1/2 cup sliced leaks
Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. add cauliflower and salt; cook, stirring, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add broth, orange zest, juice and currants; bring to a boil over high heat. Stir in couscous and leaks. Remove from heat and let stand, covered, until the liquid is absorbed, about 5 min.
This yummy dish has only 163 calories per serving and a whopping 78% of our daily value of vitamin C. Enjoy!
Best of Health,
