Ingredients:
1- 1 1/2 cups chopped celery
2 thinly sliced garlic cloves
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 1/2 cups chicken broth (one can plus water is fine)

1. In a medium pot, saute the celery and garlic in the olive oil.
2. Add the chicken broth and bring to a boil.
3. Stir in the cous cous, cover with a lid and remove from the heat.

5. After the cous cous has steamed for 5 minutes, it is complete and just needs stirring and serving.
