- Pearl Couscous Salad -
Okay, so I just made this massive order from iHerb.com and I found my pearl couscous. Which is basically a larger version of couscous which has a really nice chewy texture and it goes perfectly with salads, baked, stuffed in vegetables and more! I honestly can’t wait to try more recipes with it! I’m just sharing one for today, which you should make more of because you'll finish it incredibly fast and if you have the will power to not finish it in one go, save it for tomorrow! And you’ll just have to follow me if you want to see more :P
