Couscous is a Middle Eastern and North African grain that is super fine and very delicious. You can have it as the base to a falafel bowl, on the side of chicken, and more!

The best thing about couscous is that you can actually eat it and make it on the go so easily. Just follow these steps, and you can have yourself a healthy meal wherever you go.

Recipe

  1. Start by boiling some water either on the stove or in an electric kettle. If you’re traveling, you can ask for hot water from the flight attendants, and if you’re in a hotel room, you can microwave water.
  2. If you’re going to make the couscous on the go, put some powdered stock into 1 cup of couscous so it can flavor the grains. If you’re making it at home, you can add it to the water to dissolve.
  3. Pour 1 cup of water into the bowl or container with the couscous and simply cover it with a lid or plate for 10-15 minutes.
  4. Then, once it’s done sitting, take off the cover and fluff it slightly.
  5. Enjoy it with chickpeas, any sort of protein, or incorporate it into a salad and you have an amazing meal in no time.
