This couscous salad is light and tasty, and it would be great as a meal on its own or as a side dish at a barbecue. A tangy dressing goes well with the fresh vegetables and herbs that are in it.

Ingredients: 1 cup couscous. 1 1/2 cups boiling water. 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved. 1 cucumber, diced. 1/2 cup red onion, finely chopped. 1/2 cup fresh parsley, chopped. 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, chopped. 1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled. 1/4 cup Kalamata olives, pitted and sliced. 3 tablespoons olive oil. 2 tablespoons lemon juice. Salt and pepper to taste.

Instructions: Pour the boiling water over the couscous in a bowl that can handle heat. Wrap it up and set it aside for five minutes, or until the couscous soaks up all the water. Take a fork and fluff up the couscous. Then let it cool to room temperature. Put the couscous that has been cooled, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, parsley, mint, feta cheese, and Kalamata olives in a large bowl. Mix the lemon juice and olive oil in a small bowl with a whisk. Add pepper and salt to taste. Add the dressing to the couscous salad and mix everything together until it's well mixed. Put the couscous salad in the fridge for at least 30 minutes before you serve it. If you want, you can add more mint leaves to the top of the cold couscous salad before serving.
