It has helped me from not stopping to get fast food everyday that I am on the road. I hope you love and enjoy this recipe as much as I do, healthy and fulfilling!
Â
1 box couscous (I use )
1 large cucumber
10 oz grape tomatoes
4 oz kalamata olives pitted
4 oz feta cheese (I use Athenos brand & buy it already crumbled)
salt (I use garlic salt)
pepper
2 tbsp olive oil

Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Step 4
Instructions:
Get out a pot and add 2 cups of water and 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Once the water is boiling, add in the whole box of couscous and stir. Remove from heat, put lid on, and let sit for 5 minutes.
While the couscous is cooking in the pot (not over heat), cut up the rest of the ingredients. I use a whole cucumber, 1 cup cherry tomatoes, 1 cup of kalamata olives, and an 8 oz container of feta cheese.
After 5 minutes, using a fork, fluff the couscous.
After couscous is fluffed, mix in the cut up cucumber, tomatoes, kalamata olives, and feta cheese. Add salt and pepper to taste. I use garlic salt as I love the added flavor it gives to the couscous. Also optional, but I also add in a little extra olive oil for flavor and to help make it less dry.
Make yourself a bowl to eat and put the rest in a storage container in the fridge to save for later : )
