Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 1/2 Cups Couscous -- (dry)
1/2 Teaspoon Salt
1 1/4 Cups Boiling Water
1 Cup Carrots -- diced
1 Bell Pepper -- diced
1 Cup Green Beans -- (cut) or wax beans
1/3 Cup Red Onion -- chopped
1/3 Cup Currants
1/2 Cup Almonds -- chopped
-----Marinade-----
1/2 Cup Oil
4 Tablespoons Lemon Juice
1/2 Teaspoon Salt
1/4 Teaspoon Cinnamon
3 Tablespoons Orange Juice
4 Tablespoons Fresh Parsley
1 Tablespoon Fresh Spearmint

Put couscous and salt in large bowl; stir in boiling water. Cover
and let sit for 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally to fluff. Steam
carrots, bell pepper and beans separately (instructions say this but I
steam them all together). As soon as each vegetable is barely tender,
add to couscous. Stir in red onions, currants and almonds. Whisk
together marinade ingredients. Toss couscous and vegetable mixture
with marinade, chill for at least one hour before serving.
