Ingredients:

Serving

2 large red bell peppers (about 1 lb)
olive oil-flavored vegetable cooking spray
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/4 cup sliced mushrooms
1/4 cup sliced celery
1/4 cup chopped peeled rome apple
1 garlic clove, minced
3/4 cup low-salt chicken broth
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp ground cumin
1/4 tsp pepper
1/8 tsp ground turmeric (optional)
1/2 cup uncooked couscous
1 tsp olive oil
2 tbsp raisins
1 tbsp pine nuts, toasted

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350°.
Cut tops off bell peppers; discard tops, seeds, and membranes. Cook peppers in boiling water 5 minutes; drain and set aside.
Coat a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray, and place over medium-high heat until hot. Add onion, mushrooms, celery, apple, and garlic; sauté 3 minutes. Remove from heat; set aside.
Combine broth, salt, cumin, pepper, and turmeric in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil; stir in couscous and oil. Remove from heat; cover and let stand 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork.
