CURRIED COUSCOUS SALAD WITH DRIED SWEET CRANBERRIES



Curried Couscous Salad With Dried Sweet Cranberries image

Recipe by Dave Lieberman. You can use any Barley or Quinoa for this as well. I found this on the foodnetwork website, decided to try it because of all the rave reviews. I used pearl barley and also added some honey. I mixed everything but the barley, cranberries and walnuts separately and then tossed with the warm barley. If you want a little kick, I suggest adding some cayenne. This is delicious. Don't be thrown off by the curry, I don't even like curry and love this salad.

CURRIED COUSCOUS SALAD WITH DRIED SWEET CRANBERRIES



Curried Couscous Salad with Dried Sweet Cranberries image

For a picnic, there's no way I'm going to pass on making couscous. Instant Couscous so easy, it's almost embarrassing. The only "cooking" involved is boiling some water. I love it! Of course, you need to add some flavor to the couscous, but that's not hard. When you spike it with curry powder, fresh herbs, and a splash of orange and lemon juice, no one will be complaining about blandness. This dish tastes great at room temperature, and that makes it a picnic no-brainer because you can make it hours ahead of time.
