Quick Vegetable Couscous

I recommend Trader Joe's Whole Wheat couscous, very high in fiber and yummy. I follow the directions on the box and add it to the recipe. Also I took a class on how to cook and use tofu. The instructor recommends that you always boil your tofu for 5-10 minutes before use. It tastes much better and is safer to consume. You could always add chicken too! I separate the couscous from the vegetable for my pickiest daughter. --Ailey
