One of the grocery stores that I shop in has a readymade salad section. Their couscous salads always look so inviting.
I bought some the other day and can’t tell you how disappointing it was. It was flat and artificial tasting. I didn’t eat it. Instead, I started thinking about how I would have wanted it to taste and created my own.
One of the best things about this delicious and colorful salad how easily it’s thrown together. It’s a healthy salad that’s filled with big flavors, roasted eggplant, olives, feta, and roasted red peppers.
If you love couscous, I also make a great 10 minute Greek Style Couscous salad. These salads are really versatile, so feel free to add whatever herbs, cheeses or vegetables you want!
