Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a medium bowl, combine the boiling water, lemon juice, and olive oil. (1 minute)

02

Step

Add the whole wheat couscous to the liquid mixture. Stir gently to combine, then cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap. (1 minute)

03

Step

Let the couscous stand, undisturbed, until all the liquid is absorbed and the couscous is tender, approximately 5 minutes. (5 minutes)

04

Step

Fluff the couscous with a fork. Add the chopped kale, diced tomatoes, chopped mushrooms, and ground sumac. Season with sea salt to taste. (3 minutes)

05

Step

Gently mix all the ingredients until well combined. (2 minutes)

06

Step

Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the salad to chill thoroughly. (30 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a handful of chopped fresh parsley or mint.
If you prefer a softer kale texture, massage the chopped kale with a tablespoon of olive oil and a pinch of salt before adding it to the salad.
Feel free to experiment with other vegetables, such as cucumbers, bell peppers, or red onion.
The salad can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

    I didn't have sumac, so I used a little lemon zest instead. It was still delicious!
