Simple Couscous

Saute up some onion, garlic and veggies of choice (red pepper, zucchini, etc). Cubed sweet potatoes are a nice addition, but make sure you steam or boil them so they soften before adding to the saute. Add some raisins and a can of chickpeas and spices to taste (cumin, chili, paprika, even a little cinnamon if you want)

Meanwhile put cous cous in a bowl with water and microwave for three minutes. Add cous cous to veggies when the veggies are tender. Top with fresh cilantro and/or almond slivers.

This can be served warm or cold. You can change it up by adding a can of tomatoes to make is saucier, or adding chicken to increase the protein
