For a richer flavor, try using chicken or vegetable broth instead of water to hydrate the couscous. Feel free to experiment with different cheeses! Feta, mozzarella, or even a sprinkle of Parmesan would be delicious. Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a touch of heat. This dish is also great with other vegetables, such as bell peppers, zucchini, or spinach.

Add the diced onion and minced garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is softened and translucent, approximately 5 minutes. Stir in the diced Roma tomatoes and continue to cook until the tomatoes have released their juices and the mixture has slightly thickened, about 5-7 minutes.
03 Step
