A variety of veggies make this interesting side dish versatile. I like to serve chicken in an apple, onion, and curry sauce over the top and sprinkle it with flaked coconut. Can also be made with quinoa, just adjust cooking time.

CURRIED VEGETABLES AND COUSCOUS



Curried Vegetables and Couscous image

I saw a recipe in a cook book and made a bunch of changes to my liking. This is what I ended up with. Because cardamom is so expensive I used ground cinnamon instead. I also use extra-firm lite tofu to reduce fat. You could probably substitute apple juice for wine. My husband loved it. So did I.
