Description

This is my own creation. It is both tasty and healthy. It looks great on Christmas plates. The couscous is off-white, the peppers are green and red; the colors of Christmas. Taste and you'll know why it is my favorite recipe.

  • ½ green bell pepper, diced
  • ½ red bell pepper, chopped

  2. 2. In a large saucepan, bring water to a boil. Stir in butter. Pour water into saucepan with couscous mixture. Cover for about 5 minutes. When you remove cover, couscous will be ready. Fluff with a wooden spoon.
