COUSCOUS WITH SWEET POTATOES AND YELLOW SQUASH
I've forgotten where this came from, but I have had it for about 10 years now. It is great for vegetarians, and even for non-vegetarians! I am posting the original recipe which calls for Turmeric, but I have never added it and it still tastes delicious. Other changes I have tried include using diced tomatoes (instead of whole), baby carrots instead of a regular carrot. Also I have microwaved the sweet potato for about 5 minutes prior to peeling and cubing, just to cut down on cook time. All of these changes have worked out well.

25-MINUTE TUNISIAN VEGETABLE COUSCOUS
A perfect summer meal. What I love about this recipe is the practicality: it is both quick to make and can wait for you; there's no hurry to serve. It's also a satisfying vegetarian meal that even carnivores love, or if a member of your household prefers meat, a chicken breast poached in water, wine, and paprika and then sliced very thin can be added. I do highly recommend the garnish I devised; it can be made very quickly while the couscous is cooking. Or even if you just zest a navel orange over this dish, the aroma is heavenly and it brings the flavors together. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Heat oil in large pot over medium-low heat. Place onion, zucchini, yellow squash, and carrot in pot and cook, stirring occasionally, until onions begin to soften and turn translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the red and yellow peppers and mushrooms; cook another 3 minutes. Vegetables should still be firm.
- Pour in the vegetable stock and season with paprika, cardamom, salt, and cilantro. Bring mixture to a boil; reduce heat to low. Stir in chickpeas and tomatoes. Slowly pour in the couscous; stir. Cover pot immediately and remove from the heat. Let stand, covered, for 5 minutes. Fluff couscous with a fork. The couscous should have absorbed about half the cooking liquid.
- Serve at slightly warmer than room temperature. Garnish with orange zest and the grated cheese, paprika, and almonds.

ISRAELI COUSCOUS WITH SWEET POTATO
From Christine Cushing's "Fearless in the Kitchen" (I love Cdn. cookbooks!) For Potpie. CC's comment: "Israeli couscous is one of my all-time favourite starches. Different from N. African couscous, Israeli couscous looks like pearls and has a chewier texture. The best way to add flavour to these little white balls is with sumac, which gives a pleasant tanginess. I've got to admit, I really love tang!"
