Ingredients for 4 servings:

  • 200 g couscous
  • 1 bunch of chives
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 2 medium-sized bell peppers
  • 2 avocados, ripe
  • 4 tbsp lemon juice
  • 6 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt
  • Cayenne pepper
  • Parsley

Instructions

Working time approx. 20 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 15 minutes; Total time approx. 35 minutes

Simple and vegan

First, prepare the couscous according to the package instructions and let it cool slightly. In the meantime, finely chop the chives, peel and finely chop the garlic, and wash, deseed, and finely chop the bell peppers. Then add everything to the couscous along with the lemon juice and olive oil, season with a little salt and cayenne pepper, and mix well. Be sparing with the salt, as couscous is usually already prepared with vegetable stock. However, if you like it a bit spicier, you can be more generous with the cayenne pepper. Next, finely chop the parsley, finely dice the avocados, and carefully fold both into the salad.
