Loved it! I didn't have any chicken bouillon so i just did water with a half tsp of salt and it turned out great and tasted exactly like I expected it to.

I did not eat this myself, I made it for the boys. Instead of water and chicken bouillion granules, I used organic chicken broth. I made no other changes. Right before serving, I added one pat of butter on each serving. The kids ate every bite and asked for seconds. I'll make this again.

This was very flavorful and easy to prepare. I used chicken broth because I did not have granules but should have used more. The recipe called for 2 cups water so I used 2 cups chicken broth, but like some of the other reviewers stated, it turned out a little dry. Also, I did not cook as long as the couscous package indicated, and followed the recipe cooking time and mine came out a little chewy because of this. In summary, use more liquid and cook couscous according to package instructions for best results. Will definitely make again with these small changes...my 8 and 5 year old LOVE this!

As is, 3 stars. With my additions, 4 stars. Great recipe to build off of...definitely use chicken broth instead of water; saute up some onions instead of dry; add some cayenne :)

I really lice this recipe and the suggestions given. I have been on a couscous adventure trying out the various addtions and touches. The one where I add mixed veggies and a side of saute bell peppers (green & red for a colorful mix) and onions is my favorite.

This was delicious! I used a chicken bouillon cube because I didn't have any granules. I used fresh basil and fresh garlic and left out the onion. Can't wait to make this again, thanks!
