Cornmeal couscous with herbs is a vibrant dish inspired by North African cuisine, offering a delightful twist on traditional couscous. Made from finely ground cornmeal, this gluten-free alternative boasts a slightly sweet, earthy flavor and a tender, fluffy texture. The dish is infused with fresh herbs like parsley, cilantro, and mint, which lend a fragrant and refreshing quality. Cornmeal is a good source of complex carbohydrates, fiber, and essential nutrients like iron and magnesium, making it a nourishing option for sustained energy. Its naturally gluten-free nature makes it suitable for those with gluten sensitivities. However, be mindful of portion sizes, as cornmeal can be calorie-dense. Prepared with minimal oil and topped with lemon juice for brightness, this side dish is a wholesome, nutrient-packed choice, perfect for pairing with roasted vegetables, grilled protein, or hearty stews.
