I made this to go with Mommy's Lemon-Herb Butter-Basted Chicken. It was wonderful! I used whole wheat couscous because that's what I had on hand, and it had a real nutty aromatic scent to it. Was a fairly simple and delicious side dish that I'll no doubt make again.

I loved this. I had never cooked couscous before, and I'm glad I chose this recipe to start. It was very simple and delicious. Served along side Tri-tip and a salad. What a great side dish. Will definitely make this one again
Thanks for sharing MD..... ~V

I love couscous since it's so quick and easy, and always tastes good. This recipe is no exception. I did not use the butter and only had 1 cup of stock left, but it was homemade stock, so was full of flavor - the other cup was water. I liked the addition of almonds and parsley, it added a nice touch to the finished product! Thanks! Made for Beverage Tag.

What a nice change of pace from plain ol' rice. The cinnamon makes this just a bit different and the crunch from the almonds and fresh herbs really add to the flavor. My BF doesn't like the texture of cous cous so for once I'll get some leftovers for lunch! Lucky Me!
