I am partially well.........can sort of sit on the very edge of the chair to get on the computer. I have been flat on my back in bed but the good part was.........been glued to the cooking channel for the last couple days! Bob has been "enjoying" his Nat Geo, History, and anything else that is educational.........as usual.......which I am sorry to say..........I do not enjoy.........I watch TV to be entertained not educated. So.........being in bed for a couple days..........I really have enjoyed the cooking channel and anything else that is frivolous! As soon as I am up full time........I will try this recipe that Ina Garten did..........as a side dish for summer favorites.
Couscous and Zucchini
Bring to boil about 1 1/2 cups of chicken stock and add salt, pepper and some saffron threads.
(Just a few........that flavor goes a long way.........but soooo good) Set aside. Cut a couple zucchinis up into chunks about 2" sq. and saute in olive oil just til starting to brown. Put 1 1/2 cups couscous in a large bowl and add the zucchini. Bring the chicken stock back to a boil and then dump that on the couscous and zucchini. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let stand 15 min. Add a little chopped basil and/or parsley just before serving. This is good for a bbq as should be served at room temp. Boy........ was that easy!
