Asparagus Couscous

If you've been paying close attention, I've mentioned several recipes that have been billed as "the easiest recipe ever" - Garlic Roasted Asparagus and Homemade Taco Seasoning. and I must say that I think this one falls into that category too. And since asparagus is coming into season and likely to go on sale at your local grocery  for weeks on end, it wouldn't hurt to have another easy and delicious asparagus recipe under your belt.

Asparagus Couscous

1 bunch asparagus

4 garlic cloves, minced

2 Tbsp olive oil

2 packages couscous

1/4 cup nuts, chopped

2. Meanwhile, prepare couscous according to package directions. When couscous is finished, combine all ingredients in saute pan. Serve.

Note: We used pecans for the recipe that is pictured, but we have also used walnuts and almonds before with success.
