Giant Couscous Salad with Honey Mustard Dressing
Recipe serves 3-4
Ingredients:
For the salad:
- 1 cup giant couscous
- 2 large cucumbers, diced
- 1 pack cherry tomatoes, quartered
- 1 cup herbs of your choice (I like the combination of parsley and mint or coriander)
- 1/2 cup roasted pecans, chopped
- 1/2 cup cranberries
- Honey mustard dressing: 1 tbsp mustard, 2 tsp honey, 2 tbsp olive oil, juice of 1/2 a lemon, salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
- Slice your cherry tomatoes and cucumber. Salt generously and leave to drain in a colander to remove excess water.
- Cook the couscous according to package instructions. Rinse and drain.
- Whisk the ingredients for the honey mustard dressing together and season with salt and pepper to taste. Toss with the giant couscous.
- Mix the marinated couscous with the rest of the ingredients, seasoning with extra salt and pepper to taste if necessary.
