Mexican Roast Chicken with Corn Couscous Salad
One thing I really missed about going gluten-free was couscous. I used to eat it at least once a week. It’s so easy and quick to cook. Actually I don’t even really ‘cook’ it – I just pour boiling water over it and let it stand for a few minutes. Waaaaay easier than cooking rice…
