  3. In a saucepan, combine the broth, salt, cumin, pepper and turmeric if desired. Bring to a boil; stir in couscous and oil. Remove from the heat; cover and let stand for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork. Stir in the vegetable mixture, raisins, pine nuts and parsley. Spoon into peppers.
  4. Place in an 8-in. square baking dish coated with cooking spray. Cover and bake at 350° for 15 minutes or until heated through. Yield: 2 servings.
