Curried Apricot Couscous


Curried Apricot Couscous is a great dish to serve alongside yesterday's Rosemary-Pork Tenderloin.  The  lightly spiced couscous pairs wonderfully with the sweet apricot glaze of the tenderloin, and brings an incredible warmth to the meal.

I prefer to use whole wheat couscous when making this dish, but feel free to use whatever you have on hand.  This side dish is quick to prepare, so it would be a great last-minute option to accompany many other main courses.
