I’m hooked on the Near East CousCous - the Roasted Garlic flavor, to be exact.* But it’s not really widely available on local grocery store shelves; doubly so since we moved from 45 minutes south of Kansas City to 45 minutes north. The only store ’round these parts that seems to carry the Near East Line is Whole Foods, and it’s uber-expensive there. I was ordering it by the case from Amazon, but alas! - it’s currently out of stock.
Finding myself with a craving for couscous and couscous-free cupboard (o what a quandary!), I decided to improvise and make my own couscous concoction. After my initial plate of FAIL!, I came up with a totally easy, totally veg*n, totally yummy recipe. And only on my second try. Yay me!

Costco buys From: thinnertimesforum.com Post Date: 2008-11-02 15:07:06
So, I went to Costco to buy some protein shakes and salmon fillets. I had good intentions.
I ended up with two things I wasn’t planning to buy (bad) and that would allow me to be lazy. See, I wanted to start cooking and getting away from "convenience" food. That was my plan.
Anyway, this is what I bought - am I off line? Should I not eat them? I could always return them. Also, my diet advances tomorrow and I’m allowed to have chicken and cheeses.... Here is what I got.... more
