Orange Cranberry Couscous Like Whole Foods' image

I love to pick up the orange cranberry couscous at Whole Foods Market but it's a little spendy. So I took the ingredient list from this salad and employed the methods from a similar salad in the "Whole Foods Market Cookbook" and voila!

I'm not a big fan of couscous, but this recipe changed my mind. The orange and cranberry flavors really make it something special.

I was a bit skeptical about this recipe at first, but I'm so glad I tried it! The flavors are amazing and the couscous is cooked perfectly. I've already made it twice and I'm sure I'll be making it again soon.
