CARROT DATE WALNUT COUSCOUS
This is surprisingly filling, and very quick and easy to prepare. I enjoy it when I don't have much time, and need to make something for just one person to eat. It's very healthy too!

Steps:
- Cook carrots in pot of boiling water (cooking in the water preserves more nutrients than steaming) until just firm (about 5 minutes).
- Prepare couscous by adding equal amount of boiling water to couscous in a bowl, and covering for 5-8 minutes.
- Once cooked, fluff couscous and add olive oil.
- Drain carrot water and butter carrots while still in the pot. Mix to cover carrots thoroughly with butter. (Fat helps to digest the nutrients in the carrots.).
- Pile carrots, dates and wanuts on top of couscous.
- Add salt and pepper to taste.
