Wednesday Wellness: Couscous Salad


Ingredients
1 cup cous cous
1 cup water
1 can black beans
1 cup cooked peas
1 bunch green onions
2 Tbsp olive oil
Parsley, to taste
Lemon juice

Directions
1.  Combine cous cous and water in large bowl.  Let sit for 5-10 minutes until "cooked."
2.  Rinse and drain beans, add to cous cous.
3.  Add peas, chopped green onions, olive oil, and parsley to cous cous.  
4.  Mix in juice from one lemon (and next time try lime juice and cilantro instead of parsley!) and chill.

ENJOY!!!
