Our test kitchen home economists developed the recipe for this colorful side dish. Sauteed vegetables add texture and crunch to the quick-cooking couscous. Ingredients:

1/2 cup chopped carrot |
1/2 cup chopped onion |
1 tablespoon butter |
1/2 cup chopped zucchini |
1 green onion, thinly sliced |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
dash to 1/8 teaspoon white pepper |
Directions:
1. In a saucepan, bring water to a boil. Stir in couscous; cover and remove from the heat. Let stand for 5 minutes.
2. In a small skillet, saute the carrot and onion in butter for 3-4 minutes or until crisp-tender. Add zucchini and green onion; saute 2-3 minutes longer or until tender. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Fluff couscous with a fork; add vegetable mixture and toss to combine. Yield: 2 servings.
