As you might know I grew up in Bulgaria and lived there until I was 21. Apart from lots and lots of sunshine I hold dear memories of flavours and aromas. One of them was a morning breakfast with couscous and feta cheese. I loved it and I can almost smell the one I used to eat every time I make couscous at home.
Going vegan to me meant in a sense going back to a lot of foods, that I used to eat as a child-simple , delicious whole food dishes made at home with love.My style of cooking is largely influenced by that so now I make Mediterranean and Middle Eastern Food and occasionally “travel” further east.
In my post tonight I want to share with you an easy vegan recipe of a couscous salad which really tastes like spring to me and its green .
Green Couscous Salad
Here is what you need
- 50 gr of couscous
- 1/2 cup of peas
- 12 green olives
- a good bunch of fresh spinach
for the dressing
- a pinch of salt
- juice from 1/2 lime
- some basil
Once you make the couscous simply chop the spinach and the olives. Then add the peas. In a bowl mix the lime juice with a pinch of salt and the basil , mix and pour over the salad. Mix and enjoy !
Thank you once again fro being here and all your love and support.

Lots of love ,
