COUSCOUS WITH OLIVES AND SUN-DRIED TOMATO
A delicate, flavorful dish that will satisfy vegans and carnivores alike! Inspired by my family's deep Coptic Orthodox Christian tradition, this is a great meal alternative during strict fasting times. It contains no animal products or fats, but has enough flavor and visual impact to make you feel like you're not sacrificing a thing! I hope you will enjoy this recipe. Add chicken or prawns to make this vegan dish a carnivorous delight!

COUSCOUS WITH FETA, SUN-DRIED TOMATOES AND KALAMATA OLIVES
Pulled from Guy Fieri's recipe Recipe #510969. I made the recipe noted but wanted to share the couscous recipe with everyone. It is TDF! I used Israeli Couscous and it was divine and so pretty! It's company worthy and very easy to make.
