Mediterranean Couscous

Ingredients:

• 1 cup dry couscous
• 1.5-2 Tablespoons olive oil
• 1/4 cup chopped green onions (scallions)
• 1 lemon, juiced
• Handful of spinach, chopped
• Fresh basil leaves to taste, chopped
• 1 tomato, diced
• 1/2 cucumber, diced
• 2 full grinds of pepper
• 3-4 ounces feta cheese, crumbled

Directions:

1. Boil 1 cup of water in a saucepan. Remove water from heat and immediately put dry couscous in pan. Stir and cover the saucepan and let sit for 8-10 minutes, until water is fully absorbed (but couscous should not be too dry).
2. Add all of the ingredients, substituting, increasing or decreasing to taste.
3. Mix well. Either serve immediately warm, or put in the fridge to cool and eat as a cold salad.
4. Enjoy!
