Couscous Salad

This salad was actually a side to a citrus marinated pork tenderloin with salsa and spicy sauteed kale.  And yes, I wasn't kidding when I said addicted -we've been grazing on a lot of foliage lately.

So when it came to salad I had to pick something un-green for the position - enter couscous.  I've made variations of this salad a number of times.  It's easy to put together with a light dressing and any number of ingredients.  Tomatoes and basil, or roasted peppers and parsley tossed with olive oil and lemon dressing.  And you can make it to go with almost anything.

I put a Mexican twist on this one to go with the salsa and cumin spiced pork.  And doesn't it look great in the blue bowl I just painted at ceramics!?  Yes it does, if I do says so myself.

6 green onions chopped
1 chopped avacodo
