Couscous Vegetable Ring
 |
Couscous Vegetable Ring – A ridiculous amount of vegetables and spice went into this tangy meal. It presents very well, as the vegetables are so colorful, and it smells absolutely divine! There is so much flavor in the veggies, due to our “best” blend of spices, we chose plain, white, couscous as it’s accompaniment. This quick, easy zucchini ring can be made any night, even after work.

A very filling meal, with zucchini “noodles” instead of pasta. Much lower in calories, zucchini also has more flavor than the traditional pasta. It also makes it healthier, which is always a good thing.
