  Easy and quick--I substitute quinoa for the couscous for extra protein, iron and amino acid content

  This is an amazing salad! Absolutely flawless. I flavoured my cous cous but on reflection I don't think it was necessary. ENJOY!

  I think it tastes better if you use this recipe: Heat the oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Toss the beetroot with 1 tbsp olive oil and season. Roast for 30 minutes or until tender. Cool, then peel and cut into cubes. Steam the carrots and broccoli until just tender, about 4 minutes, then refresh in very cold water and drain. Put the couscous in a large bowl and pour over 150ml boiling water. Cover for 10 minutes then fluff up with a fork. Whisk together the dressing ingredients and season. Put the couscous into a serving dish, sit the vegetables on top and pour over the dressing. Sprinkle with pumpkin seeds and parsley and serve.
