COUSCOUS AND CHERRY TOMATO SALAD



Couscous and Cherry Tomato Salad image

This is a wonderful side dish that me mum (my English mother-in-law) has prepared for us twice now upon visiting. Some of the last batch is still in the fridge as I write this, and I can't stop nibbling at it! I finally remembered to get the recipe this time.
