This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken or turkey. I also like to add some vegetables, like carrots or celery, to make it a more complete meal.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my couscous turned out dry and bland. I think I might have used too much water.

I had some trouble finding almond milk at my local grocery store. I ended up using regular milk instead, and it turned out fine.

This dish was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's because I used a lot of dried fruit. Next time, I'll use less fruit and see if that makes a difference.
