Couscous

Deceptively Delicious

1/2 cup reduced-fat low-sodium chicken broth
1 cup whole wheat couscous
1/2 cup yellow squash puree
1/4 cup carrot puree
2 Tbsp margarine spread (olive oil)
1 Tbsp grated Parmesan
1 clove garlic, minced (2-3)
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp pepper

Bring the broth to a boil in a medium saucepan.

Turn off the heat, stir in the couscous, squash puree, carrot puree, olive oil, Parmesan, garlic, salt, and pepper. Cover and let stand for 6 to 7 minutes, until all the liquid is absorbed and the couscous is soft.
