To the pan with roasted vegetables, add the cooked couscous. Mix thoroughly, allowing the flavors to combine beautifully.6

More about the Vegetarian Couscous with Roasted Vegetables
Mediterranean cuisine is celebrated for its fresh ingredients and aromatic herbs, and this recipe is no exception. Couscous, often referred to as the North African 'pasta,' is a versatile staple in many dishes. Roasted vegetables bring out their natural sweetness when combined with couscous, offering a satisfying plate without the heaviness of pasta. The inclusion of feta cheese not only provides creaminess but also complements the dish with a subtle tangy flavor. This dish is perfect for those who appreciate the simplicity of vegetarian cuisine while enjoying an exotic touch. It is as much about color and texture as it is about taste.
