Fire Roasted Mediterranean Couscous

 

Ingredients

Below is a rough guide, as quantities are not so important, and are more important to us, to ensure quantity and fill levels, you can at home have as much as you like!

Method

Cook some of your favourite cous cous, as per the cooking instructions and  allow to cool  in the fridge. We then add some freshly chopped flat leaf parsley and some fresh coriander. You could use the slightly finer bulgar wheat, or if you can find it the slightly larger barley variety, or some Quinoa to make a change.

We then mix in some stoned Greek kalamati olives, again, please feel free to experiment, there are so many fantastic varieties available now.

We then top with ‘fire roasted’ red and yellow pepper strips, along with roasted white and red onions. Char grill your own until slightly blackened – but not too much or you will get a very bitter taste – and forget about trying to skin the peppers, life is too short.

This is served with a special chunky red pepper pesto salad dressing, use your favourite pesto, and let down with a little extra olive oil.

You'll see we have provided information on each product’s contribution to your GDA. GDA’s are something that we keep a keen eye on, we are proud to say we won’t launch a product if it contributes disproportionately to your GDA of fat or salt, and have constantly demonstrated this by not launching products which are over the top in these areas. Having said that, since we are a vegetarian brand and many of our products contain cheese, we are not pretending to be a 'low fat' healthy brand. What we aim for is a balance of taste and health, and an honesty that goes with all our products, so you know what you’re eating and can make sure you eat a balanced, healthy diet on a daily basis.
