I originally got this from Allrecipes, but improved it by using whole wheat couscous and fruit bits(already chopped)and pecan pieces. The original called for slivered almonds, raisins and apricots. Healthy and delicious.

Tips:
- Use flavorful stock: The stock you use will greatly impact the flavor of your couscous. Choose a stock that is packed with flavor, such as chicken, vegetable, or beef broth.
- Add some aromatics: To add depth of flavor to your couscous, add some aromatics to the pot while it is cooking. This could include things like onions, garlic, celery, or carrots.
- Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs can brighten up the flavor of your couscous. Add them at the end of cooking for the best flavor.
- Don't overcook the couscous: Couscous cooks very quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Overcooked couscous will be mushy and unpleasant.
- Fluff the couscous: Once the couscous is cooked, fluff it with a fork to separate the grains. This will help to prevent it from becoming clumpy.
