This recipe is very good. I made it exactly as written and added some fresh mushrooms that I needed to use up. I used it as a side dish with baked chicken last night, and the left overs for lunch today. Thanks for sharing.

This was wonderful...I made this for dinner tonight, and everyone just loved it...I made as directed, only I used a bit more onions and garlic than called for, after I added some crumbled feta cheese along with the Parmesan...what a delicious side dish, spinach is one of our favorite veggies, but I have never though of adding it with couscous, what a super combination!...this is a keeper. Thanks Nurse Di for posting, I will make this again...KC

Wow! This was amazing and so easy to make! I added more garlic and onions, and also added some chopped up chicken thighs for a heartier meal. I used 1/2 cup of parmesan and toasted pine nuts instead of pecans. We'll definitely be making this one again! Thank you for your recipe!
