NOTE: This is my first try at posting a recipe. Being new at this, I hope it
fits the guidelines. The recipe came from a local paper. I found it to be
delicious and *quick*. Also, I used 2 parts water to 1 part mix- just boiled it
in the teakettle, measured, poured over couscous mix, covered it, let stand 5
minutes, ate. I found the added firmness was more to my taste.
