BBQ season has officially begun … for me anyway … and for my inaugural flame cooked piece of happiness, I made my favourite summer salad.
The secret for this recipe is a fantastic find from The Garlic Box, their Ultimate Garlicky Italian Seasoning, you can buy it on line directly from them here …
For the Salad you will need:
8 vine tomatoes
A Lg handful of green beans (about 50 or so)
½ cup dried couscous
1 cup boiling water
3 Tbls Salad oil (I like Pumpkin or Sesame Seed oils best for the nutty flavour)
3 Tbls White Balsamic Vinegar
2 small bowls and 1 large bowl.
In one of the small bowls combine the Garlicky Italian Seasoning, oil, and vinegar. Mix together and cover with plastic wrap. Set aside and let it all soak together.
In the other small bowl, combine the couscous with the boiling water and set aside to let the couscous soften.
Wash and coarsely dice the Tomatoes. Wash the beans and clip the ends; then cut to 1” pieces. Once the couscous has absorbed all the water, toss it with the tomato and beans. Add the dressing mix and toss all together well so that the dressing is mixed well.
Happy Feasting!
