Deborah
The pesto flavour throughout the salad is delicious along with salty hits of feta and crunch from the vegetables.

Ingredients
  

  • 100g couscous
  • 200ml vegetable stock
  • 2 spring onions
  • 1 pepper any colour
  • 0.5 cucumber
  • 50g feta cheese cubed
  • 2 tbsp pesto see Notes
  • 2 tbsp pine nuts to serve

Instructions
 

  • Tip the couscous into a large bowl and pour over the stock. Cover, then leave for 10 mins until fluffy and all the stock has been absorbed.
  • Meanwhile, slice the spring onions and pepper, and dice the cucumber. Add these to the couscous, fork through the pesto, stir in the feta, then transfer to a serving bowl and sprinkle over the pine nuts, to serve.

Notes

  • I normally use green pesto, however, try it with red pesto for a change.
  • This couscous salad with feta recipe is easily adapted if you’re cooking for less or more people.
