On Mother's Day I was looking for a side dish to make for our family party. It was the 7th day of the GM diet where I was allowed fruit, veggies, and brown rice. This recipe fit in perfectly.
Ingredients:
2 Yellow Squash or Zucchini
Large Onion
28oz Stewed Tomatoes
2c Water
2 5.6oz Boxes of Couscous
1c Slivered Almonds
1c Raisins
I found a brown rice couscous that I could use instead of regular couscous so that I was still on plan. I ended up having to use 4c of water instead of 2 since it is a different type of couscous.
Chop onion, squash, and zucchini
Combine the onion, zucchini, squash, tomatoes, spice packets, and water in the slow cooker.
Cover and cook on high for 3 hours. Add the couscous to the slow cooker. Cook for an additional 20 minutes.
Add raisins and almonds. Then serve.
It was nice having a clean dish, but it was not one of my favorites. I did love having it for the 7th day though.
