I originally made it for a potluck dinner at our church, so this recipe makes a nice large portion. For a family size recipe, just cut all the ingredients in half.

Ingredients

• 4 cups dry couscous
• 5 cups water
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 2 tsp. salt
• 8 oz. pesto sauce
• 4 large, firm Roma tomatoes, diced
• 16 oz. mozarella cheese, cubed

Directions

Measure the water, olive oil, and salt into a large pot. Bring to boil.

Add couscous to boiling water. Remove from heat immediately.

Let couscous stand for five to eight minutes.

Gently fluff the couscous with a fork, breaking up any large lumps (be gentle).

Stir pesto sauce into couscous; distribute evenly (but gently).

Allow to couscous to cool for one hour.

Add diced tomatoes and cubed mozzarella cheese to couscous/pesto mixture and gently fold in.

Serve cold.

Now, could a recipe be any easier than this? I don't think so.

Enjoy!
