About Couscous-asparagus salad
Couscous-Asparagus Salad is a vibrant dish inspired by Mediterranean cuisine, combining tender pearl couscous, crisp asparagus, and a medley of fresh vegetables such as cherry tomatoes and red onion. Tossed in a light lemon vinaigrette and enhanced with herbs like parsley or mint, this salad offers a refreshing balance of flavors and textures. Couscous provides a gentle boost of carbohydrates while asparagus contributes fiber, vitamins A, C, and K, and powerful antioxidants. Olive oil in the dressing adds heart-healthy fats. This salad is a light yet satisfying addition to any meal and can be enjoyed warm or chilled. While it’s a nutritious choice, portion control is key as couscous is calorie-dense. Perfect for health-conscious eaters, it’s a versatile dish ideal for vegetarians or anyone looking to incorporate more plant-based options into their diet.
