TOMATO BASIL COUSCOUS SALAD
Originally from Taste of Home, this recipe is delicious, refreshing and summery AND it makes a ton of salad! May I also add that my kitchen smelled wonderful from all the fresh ingredients I chopped? Winner in my book. I added cucumbers and subbed in Cherub tomatoes, otherwise it is TOH's recipe.

- 2. Stir in the onions, tomatoes, cucumbers, basil, oil, vinegar, pepper flakes, salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate until chilled. (I whisked together the dressing ingredients and poured over, then mixed.)
