Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan, combine the water, sugar, cranberries, apricots, and cherries. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar has dissolved, about 2 minutes. Stir in the couscous and remove the pan from the heat. Cover the pan with a tight fitting lid until the couscous has absorbed all of the cooking liquid, about 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Using a fork, fluff the couscous to break up any lumps. Add the almonds and hazelnuts and toss. Spread the mixture evenly on a baking sheet until completely cooled, about 10 minutes.
  • Transfer the couscous to an airtight container and store in the refrigerator.
  • Serving Suggestion: Drizzle the couscous with 1/4 cup of extra-virgin olive oil for a moister texture.

2 1/3 cups water
1/2 cup sugar
1/3 cup dried cranberries
1/3 cup dried apricots, chopped
1/3 cup dried cherries, chopped
2 1/2 cups (about 1 pound) couscous
1/2 cup coarsely chopped toasted slivered almonds
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, if desired

Category Recipe Roundup
  • Mediterranean Couscous Salad. Trying to eat better? Start by incorporating this into your lunches. The Mediterranean diet is one of the healthiest around.
  • Lemon Herb Couscous Salad. When I grow tired of my usual leafy greens, I swap them out for this citrusy creation. It’s a lively blend of fresh veggies, walnuts, herbs, and Israeli couscous.
  • Cherry Tomato Couscous Salad. I’m in love with this salad! It’s bright, zippy, fresh, and very nourishing. The veggie combo, pearl couscous, roasted chickpeas, feta, and basil leaves all come together for a popping summer salad.
  • Couscous Salad with Sun-Dried Tomato and Feta. Okay, so I’m really in love with all these couscous recipes. But can you blame me? This 12-minute salad, in particular, speaks to me when I’m starving.
  • Quick Pesto Couscous Salad. This 10-minute recipe has a Mediterranean flair that makes it so easy to eat meat-free. You meld couscous with vegan pesto and load it up with lentils, cherry tomatoes, olives, cucumber, vegan feta, and fresh herbs.
  • Israeli Couscous Salad. Also known as pearl couscous, Israeli couscous is made from semolina flour. It’s bigger, chewier, and takes a little longer to cook.
  • Greek Couscous Salad. Make your Greek salad more filling by ditching the lettuce for pearl couscous. Those chewy bits have the backbone this salad needs to hold up all the adornments.
  • Moroccan Couscous Salad. Looking for a side to add to your exotic Moroccan spread? This couscous is perfect! It’s jam-packed with a bunch of Moroccan flavors for a classic dish.
  • Warm Pearl Couscous Salad. This warm salad has all the makings for a healthy and quick weeknight dinner. While the couscous is cooking, saute chickpeas and tomatoes until the juices begin to ooze.
  • Balsamic Pearl Couscous Salad. So by now, you may be picking up on a trend. Tomatoes, cucumber, and chickpeas go really well with couscous. What’s great about this one is the sweet and tangy balsamic dressing.
