Loredana’s Tips
If there’s leftover Cous cous with vegetables, store it in the fridge in a container
You can substitute basil with mint leaves
If you prefer it warm, you can sauté it in a pan for 2-3 minutes adding a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil
For a more complete dish, you can add 8.8 oz of grilled chicken breast cut into small pieces
