BASIL ROASTED VEGETABLES OVER COUSCOUS



Basil Roasted Vegetables over Couscous image

For some reason, the smell of fresh basil reminds me of springtime. This simple recipes uses the herb to its full advantage. You can add other vegetables to your liking or even add tofu as I sometimes do. For WW Core folks, it's Core plus points for the cheese. If you want all core, try making a very stiff yogurt cheese instead.
