We love it when side dishes pop with color, like the bright pepper accents you'll see in this light and fluffy couscous. It's a scrumptious and welcome switch from baked potatoes or rice. -Taste of Home Test Kitchen

The vegetables in this dish were a bit overcooked. I think I would cook them for less time next time.

I found the couscous to be a bit too dry. I think I would add more liquid next time.
