  1. I love the addition of couscous to this salad! I make a spinach salad with strawberries and avo all the time, but adding couscous adds another layer of flavor and texture - and makes it more filling!

  15. The flavors in this salad are fantastic! I'd never heard of this salad before and was very intrigued. The salad dressing is out-of-this-world and I know I'm going to keep a small jar of it in my fridge to use on all types of salads.

  16. Wow this looks amaziiiing, thanks,this is actually the pearl couscous and not the medium couscous that we usually use in the maghreb, ive recently posted a course on Udemy (Cook 3 Couscous recipes easily) about couscous and ive mentioned how we in Algeria prepare the medium and pearl couscous, you can have a look and tell me what you think, cheers.
