I am on salad duty, which means chopping and slicing lots of salads, making some croutons, couscous, everything prepped and in bowls, ready for sandwiches, paninis, Buddha bowls, everything.
Sure, the texture resembles the grains beloved by vegetarian hippies, but a cup of plain couscous contains 176 calories and 36 grams of carbs, which is about the same as many pastas.
In the meantime I've got half my cauliflower couscous in a pan boiling in some water to cook it through, other half in a bowl, which is gonna go in the microwave with my other ingredients.
