Steps:
- 1. Make the dressing: whisk together the first seven ingredients (olive oil thru hot sauce). Set aside
- 2. Rinse the lentils, then put in a saucepan. Add 3 cups water and bring to a boil. Simmer until they are tender - about 25 minutes. Don't overcook. Drain and add to the dressing.
- 3. Place the couscous in a small heat-proof bowl. Bring 1/4 cup water to a boil, then add to the couscous. Stir and let sit until water is absorbed - about 5 minutes. Fluff and add to the dressing mixture.
- 4. Add the bell peppers and the carrot. Toss gently until combined. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve at room temperature.
