jazzed up couscous

jazzed up couscous
  • 1 (10 ounce) box couscous
  • 1 1/2 cups boiling water
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 Roma (plum) tomatoes, diced
  • 1/2 cup shredded Cheddar-Monterey Jack cheese blend


  1. Stir together couscous and boiling water in a large, heatproof bowl. Cover with plastic wrap, and set aside for 10 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in onions and garlic, and cook until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the diced Roma tomatoes, and cook until the tomatoes release their juice and the mixture begins to thicken.
  3. Fluff the couscous with a fork, then fold in the tomato mixture and cheese. Serve immediately as the cheese is melting.
