Asparagus and Couscous Side Dish

Here is a recipe that I make in bulk on Sundays and it usually lasts me through four weeknight dinners.  It's super easy and stores well.

1 bunch of asparagus
1 cup Israeli couscous
Garlic Powder, Onion, Powder, Salt and Pepper to taste

Trim the asparagus and saute in olive or canola oil until crispy, then season with salt and pepper.  Remove from heat and set aside.   Heat up 1 1/4 cup of water to a boil.  Add couscous and cook until just the bite/consistency of paste. Once cooked, season couscous with garlic and onion powder.  Then fold in the asapargus, you can even add some Parmesan cheese at the end for some extra flavor.  You can add other seasonings if you'd like but it's a great dish as is.


Hope you enjoy this recipe!
