Fantastic, and I thought I didn't like couscous! I didn't have Seasoned Rice Vinegar so I used Apple Cider Vinegar like another review mentioned. Left everything else the same. Turned out perfect, this one's a keeper!

I was pleasantly surprised. I didn't change a thing except for using a yellow onion instead of a red onion. Flavors were mild. Nothing overpowering. All the ingredients meshed well and I used a whole wheat cous cous. I made 4 servings and it was A LOT. I definitely have leftovers. Everyone liked this dish. Happy. =)

My family and I enjoyed this recipe. I cut the vinegar in half and added another clove of garlic.

This was excellent! I made a few changes, including using apple cider vinegar in place of rice vinegar. I used Italian herb seasoning as I had no dried oregano. I used half a red onion, five cloves of garlic, four of those small sweet multicolored peppers from the supermarket, and it was delish! Thanks for the recipe - will definitely be making again.

I made this for my weekly dinner group with my friends and it was a huge hit. This was extremely flavorful and very colorful, which satisfied my need to have at least 3 colors at every meal. I served it with grilled lamb skewers and everyone went back for seconds. Some people even asked for it to bring home for lunch the next day. The only change I made was using regular white wine vinegar, because that's all I had on hand. This dish was wonderful hot, and is just as good cold as leftovers, I've been eating it with lunch for the rest of the week. This will be added to my regular recipe rotation. Thanks.

I thought this was very good. I have made a few Couscous recipes and they have all turned out quite bland; but this was quite tasty! I followed it exactly; although I didn't have Seasoned Rice Vinegar - I used White Wine Vinegar in place of it. It tasted much better the following day! This is one I will make again! Thank you for the recipe!

I thought this was ok. I didn't think the vinegar made it sour, but sweet. I think next time I would leave out the vinegar. The spinach was a very nice addition.

This was a really tasty side dish to some grilled chicken skewers. For various reasons, made several adjustments, which are noted below. Instead of the vinegar, I used the zest and juice from one lemon, basically because I love the flavor of lemon oveer vinegar. I also used whole wheat couscous, because I had it on hand/it's healthier. Because I only had frozen spinach (equal to about one cup thawed) and also prefer a bit of crunch left to the bell pepper, I changed the cooking method slightly. I prepared the couscous in the broth separately, and added the lemon and herb mixture to this when fluffing with a fork. I cooked the onion/bell pepper mixture as directed, and threw in the spinach at the very end, just heating through (about 1 minute). Last, I mixed the grains with the veggies, and it turned out great!

This recipe was AWESOME.Everyone including a one and three year old all the way up to the adults LOVED it. The taste is melt in your mouth good. I used crystallized ginger(minced it in the food chopper) because that is all my supermarket had, it worked just fine. I cannot say enough good things about this recipe! Try it!

Was a little skeptical about the vinegar (and as one of the reviewers noted - it does end up with a sour undertone); but the overall result is pleasing both to the eye and the palette. Thank you for a simple and delicious recipe.

Yum, yum, yum! This was fantastic! I used Israeli couscous, because I had it on hand. I also used roasted red peppers because I didn't have fresh. I loved the flavor of this and so did my almost 2 year old...he was eating it by the fistful (who needs a spoon!) I know i will be making this again!

We really enjoyed this with fresh water fish baked in foil (olive oil with herbs) with the juices added to the couscous. Also, I made a bed of greens instead of cooking the spinach in. I had to substitute red wine vinegar as had no rice vin in-house. I also had a little extra stock on hand and it needed it. We loved it!

This was tasty and looks very fresh and appealing when it's done. It has a bit of a sour taste but not overpowering. I didn't change anything except for adding a small handful of slivered almonds to give it extra textrue and it was a nice side dish to salmon. This can be eaten cold the next day if you have left overs and it still has a very good taste, or you can add it to some fresh greens to make a salad.
