Red Pepper and Mushroom Couscous
Couscous is so versatile. Personally I make it at least 2-3 times per week for serving with various dishes. As good as it is made with just a pinch of salt and vegan spread, this quick and simple recipe livens up the couscous and makes for a delicious accompaniment for stews or casseroles.
