COUSCOUS-CHICKPEA SALAD
This is a Recipezaar 2005 adoptee. It's a healthy, light main dish salad, that can easily be made vegetarian by using the vegetable stock. I omit the raisins as I can't stand them in savory dishes, but my daughter adds them to hers, so I left them in the ingredient list.

COUSCOUS WITH CHICKEN AND CHICKPEAS
From Food and Wine magazine, posted for ZWT3. It's delicious, and my favorite recipe for chicken drumsticks (or thighs). "Served on a mound of couscous, with plenty of steaming broth poured over the top, the hearty Moroccan-inspired stew is a flavorful combination of chicken, chickpeas, vegetables, and spices."

COUSCOUS WITH FETA, CHICKPEAS AND TOMATO
This is one of my vegetarian sister's favorite salads, from Mom (I'm not sure where she got it). She just eats it as is, but it is also good with grilled chicken, for the non-vegetarian set. A simple, tasty, one-pot dish, excellent hot or cold.

CURRIED COUSCOUS WITH CHICKPEAS
This makes a great lunch or snack and is low-fat. Great for bringing to work or school and can be eaten hot or cold. I like it with Braggs sprinkled on top (but I'm known to add braggs to any rice or couscous dish for extra flavour!). Could also add some cooked chicken to make a main dish, maybe with a side green salad or additional steamed veggies.
