Chilled Cous Cous Salad with Chickpeas and Feta
Fluffy whole wheat couscous tossed with protein-packed chickpeas and crisp cucumbers, finished with a creamy lemon-yogurt dressing.
INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup cooked Whole Wheat Couscous
1/3 cup canned Chickpeas
0.75 oz Low-Fat Feta Cheese
2 tbsp Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1/4 cup diced Cucumber
3 Cherry Tomatoes, halved
1 tsp Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Prepare the whole wheat couscous according to package directions using water or vegetable broth, then fluff with a fork and let cool.
Rinse and drain the canned chickpeas thoroughly.
Dice the cucumber and halve the cherry tomatoes into bite-sized pieces.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the nonfat Greek yogurt, lemon juice, and a pinch of dried oregano or black pepper to create the dressing.
In a large bowl, combine the cooled couscous, chickpeas, cucumber, and tomatoes.
Gently fold in the low-fat feta cheese crumbles.
Drizzle the yogurt dressing over the salad and toss until everything is evenly coated.
Chill in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes before serving to let the flavors meld.
