We really loved this. DH needed a sec to get into the groove but the kids made me promise I'd make it again. I used a tube of breakfast sausage and left out the coriander because I didn't have any. It was very good and I'll make it this way again. Great with a simple side salad. Thanks for posting.

Great recipe! It comes together very quickly and with hardly any dishes to clean after dinner! Very flavorful with the sausage and cranberry combo.

I tried the last night. It was very good. I really like couscous anyway, and the addition of cranberries is really great. I just used turkey sausage since I try to watch the fat in my recipes. Very good! I will make it again.
