Editors Review

When you have less than an hour to prepare a meal for half a dozen guests, what will you make? Weelicious host has a great idea and a delicious meal recipe that is quick to make and inexpensive. Its Moroccan Israeli couscous salad using a lot of Mediterranean ingredients like olive oil, pine nuts and fresh mint leaves finely chopped for that authentic flavor. It takes 12 minutes of cooking and a few stirs in a salad bowl to make this salad. She is making a vegan Israeli couscous salad but you are free to ad
