Place couscous in a large bowl and pour boiling water over the top. Let it soak for 10 minutes for the grains to swell, then fluff it with a fork.

Pour the yogurt mixture over the couscous and mix well to combine.
Eat it as is or chill it in the refrigerator for a real Summer treat. It's even better when the flavors combine for at least an hour.
