I worked this out trying to make a South Beach Diet substitute for Mexican Rice.
Ingredients:
1 (5 1/2 ounce) box of near east original couscous or 3/4 cup uncooked couscous
1 1/2 cups low-fat beef broth
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons cumin
1/2 teaspoon coriander
1/2 teaspoon oregano
1 tablespoon dried onion flakes
1/2 teaspoon cayenne
1/2 teaspoon cilantro
Directions:
1. Bring beef broth, olive oil and spices to a boil.
2. Add couscous, stir, remove from heat and cover.
3. Let stand 5 minutes, fluff and serve.
4. You can also add drained, cooked black beans if you wish.
5. Unfortunately, corn is not allowed on the South Beach Diet.
