Overall, this was a good recipe. I would definitely make it again, but I would make a few changes to suit my own taste.

The couscous was a bit too dry for my liking. I think I would add a bit more liquid next time.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add some more herbs and spices next time.

This recipe is a great way to get your kids to eat vegetables. The yellow squash is hidden in the couscous, so they won't even notice it.
