    A bit ordinary to be honest - not particularly tangy!

    quick, easy and really really tasty - I tend to add a little more lemon juice and feta, and make a huge bowl full, taking it to work for my lunch. Delicious!

    did this at scool 2day 4 part of my GCSE course............... it reallly nice. but maybe just a little too much couscous? It seemed to take over the other ingredients a bit. But it still looks and smells pretty awesum!!

    I love lemon but never put it on a salad like this before. The parsley works really well with the zesty lemon. I added some cherry tomatoes which added colour and flavour!

    Great change for cous-cous. I actually quarter my courgettes and add some red pepper, stir fried first.
