This Mediterranean Couscous Salad is an easy crowd-pleaser that works just as well as a flavourful side dish or a stand-alone meal. It’s ideal for make-ahead meals, potlucks and Christmas tables, as it holds its texture beautifully and tastes even better once the flavours have had time to meld together.
