This recipe uses the "instant" couscous (ie, Near East brand) recently
discussed on this newsgroup. It's quick, easy, cheap, delicious and
very good for you. It can be vegetarian if you substitute water for
chicken broth and use vegetarian minestrone.

1 box couscous
2 cups chicken broth, canned or fresh
2 small zucchini/courgettes
handful of cherry tomatoes
garlic
olive oil
1 can minestrone soup 

Bring the stock to a boil in a saucepan. Add the couscous, stir. Cover.
Turn off heat.

Saute garlic in olive oil in a frying pan. Add zucchini/courgette,saute
for 2-3 minutes. Add sliced tomatoes. Blend. Add minestrone, heat
through.

Place couscous in a bowl, add vegetables. Add left over meat, if
desired (leftover buffalo chicken wings, sliced, is especially good.
Enjoy.
