Prep: 20 minutes. For a unique presentation, pack the couscous mixture in a 1-cup dry measuring cup, and invert onto the spinach leaves. The couscous will take on the shape of the measuring cup. Ingredients:
1 cup water |
2/3 cup uncooked couscous |
1 cup grape tomatoes, halved |
3/4 cup (3 ounces) crumbled feta cheese with basil and sun-dried tomatoes |
3/4 cup chopped fresh parsley |
1/4 cup pine nuts |
1 tablespoon dried basil |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 cup fat-free italian dressing, divided |
4 cups spinach leaves (about half of a 10-ounce package) |
Directions:
1. Place water in a small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave at HIGH 1 1/2 minutes or until water boils. Remove from heat, and stir in couscous. Cover and let stand 5 minutes or until liquid is absorbed; fluff with a fork. Spoon onto a baking sheet, and spread in a thin layer; let stand 7 minutes or until cool.
2. Combine tomato, next 5 ingredients, and 1/4 cup dressing in a bowl. Add cooled couscous to parsley mixture, and toss well.
3. Combine spinach and 1/4 cup dressing; toss gently. Place spinach mixture on each of 4 individual plates. Top with couscous mixture.
