Whole wheat couscous with roasted veggies

Whole wheat couscous with roasted veggies

INGREDIENTS:

• 1/2 cup water
• 1/4 cup whole wheat couscous
• 1/2 cup zucchini, sliced into rounds
• 1/2 cup yellow squash, sliced into rounds
• 1/2 cup red pepper, cut into strips
• 1/2 cup broccoli florets
• salt and pepper to taste
• 2-3 tbsps lemon juice
• 1 tbsp fresh chopped basil

DIRECTIONS:

1. Bring water to a boil in a small saucepan, then add couscous.  Stir a bit, then remove from heat.  It should only take about 5 minutes for the couscous to cook after that!
2. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees, then toss veggies in a baking sheet with salt, pepper, and some olive oil if you’d like.  Roast for about 25-30 minutes depending on your oven.
3. Mix veggies with couscous, adding more salt and pepper if necessary.  Add in basil and then lemon juice, mixing thoroughly!
