Ingredients

  • 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

  • 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice

  • 1 garlic clove, minced

  • ½ tsp dried oregano

  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Directions

  • Place couscous in a bowl and pour boiling water or broth over it. Cover and let sit for 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork.
  • In a large bowl, combine cooked couscous with tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, olives, feta, parsley, and mint if using.
  • In a small jar or bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper.
  • Pour dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.
  • Chill for 15–20 minutes before serving to let the flavors meld.

Notes
