The whole family loved this. Added some chopped sun-dried tomatoes and a bit of chicken broth to the liquid. Served it with baked chicken thighs that had been marinated in garlic, lemon juice and fresh thyme.

I tried this over the weekend and found it to be a wonderful recipe that accompanied grilled chicken. I'm a cumin lover and it added a wonderful flavor to this side dish. I added some red pepper flakes and 3 cloves of minced garlic to the oil before adding the zucchini and would encourage any spice and garlic lover to add this also. Great one Yooper - it's a keeper!

DH declared "This is the best couscous you have ever made!" He devoured, it and he is NOT a couscous type of guy! I also added minced garlic, and more that doubled the cumin. I served this with African Grilled Chicken Breast. Thank you yooper! Excellent recipe!
