VEGETABLE COUSCOUS PILAF
This Moroccan-style pilaf is loaded with vegetables and gets its complex flavors from cumin, almonds, caraway, and the multihued melange that comes from the tricolored couscous. We are always looking for something to take the place of rice and this seemed like a perfect candidate. This pilaf looks pretty too, with vibrant earth tones of a spice bazaar. Loosley based on F&W's - recipe by Grace Parisi, One Pot, Great Meal form the March 2008 edition.

HERBED COUSCOUS PILAF
I developed this one night when I was looking for something different to do with couscous. It's quick and easy and goes well with chicken, salmon, or pork.I use the Near East brand of quick couscous. If you use plain couscous, you may want to bump up the amount of herbs a little or use seasonings to your taste.
