Earlier today I was browsing the cook books in Borders while waiting for Mr. Munro. This recipe for a vegetarian Nicoise-type salad caught my eye and I decided I’d make my version for dinner.
Ingredients:
1 cup cous cous
1 cup boiling water
knob of butter or a little olive oil
tomatoes
sliced green beans
black olives
parsley
2 hard boiled eggs
salt and pepper to taste
Add boiling water and butter or olive oil to the cous cous and combine with a fork until the the cous cous has soaked up the water and is fluffy. Cook the green beans and drain. Chop the tomatoes finely. Chop the parsley. Combine these ingredients with the cous cous and arrange the quartered eggs on top. Add salt and pepper to taste. Drizzle with your favorite vinegarette dressing.
Verdict: Very yummy. I’d definitely make this salad again.
Oh that looks so yummy…Thank you…I will have to try this out.
This salad looks wonderful. Thanks for sharing.
I like quick and easy recipes that are tasty. This one ticked all three boxes.
