  Made this over the week-end and served it with a green salad. Easy to make and perfect to serve. Made double the coucous and used it for lunches.

  Baked the empty peppers in oven for 15-20 min instead of microwave. Did the cous-cous with chicken stock. Tasted really nice and easy to do also.

  Made this last week adding chicken stock to the cous cous, and cashews instead of pine nuts. Really tasty and great leftovers for lunch. Will make this again, but probably more as a side dish.

  Oh - my peppers did nearly catch light in the microwave though - so be wary!

  I put smoked salmon and dill (instead of basil) into the couscous mix and it was really delicious! Got the leftovers for lunch - can't wait!

  Good midweek meal - served with burgers. The couscous mixture is good on its own as lunch with some salad leaves.

  Delicious! I made this and took it to a BBQ everyone loved it and couldn't believe how easy it was. The left-overs the next day were yummy.

  Made these last night with quinoa instead of couscous. We loved them! Even one of my kids, which is saying a lot. Used nice juicy grape tomatoes, a nice amount of basil, olives, pistachios instead of pine nuts, and and a great herbed feta. Also topped with some feta for some good crusty browning in the oven. Definitely making these again!

  Lovely and so easy to make, i have added some chick peas too to bulk it up and so that there was plenty left for lunch the next day.... Couscous tasted nice cold too. One of family favourites now!

  Made this a few times now and it's really easy and very tasty. I serve it with some Greek style lamb marinaded with lemon, garlic & oregano and a Greek salad. Agree it's good to have some couscous leftover to eat on it's own!

  I have made this recipe 3 times now...I love it. I actually use the Romano Peppers (the long thin ones) and serve it with Tzatziki. Very yummy and healthly too
