How to Make Citrus And Cinnamon Couscous
- Combine 1 cup couscous, 1/2 cup orange juice concentrate, 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and salt to taste in a large bowl. Stir well to coat the couscous.
- Add 1 cup of boiling water to the bowl. Stir gently to combine, then cover the bowl.
- Let the couscous sit for 10-15 minutes, or until all the water is absorbed and the couscous is fluffy.
- Fluff the couscous with a fork to separate the grains.
- Stir in 1 cup of chopped mixed greens and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
- Add 1 cup of segmented oranges (or about 2 medium oranges) and gently toss to combine.
- Allow the salad to cool slightly to room temperature before serving. Enjoy as a standalone dish or use as a filling for pita bread!
- (Optional) Garnish with chopped fresh mint or cilantro before serving.
