Since getting my little BBQ for Christmas I have been wanting to use it for as many meals as humanely possible and this salad was a fantastic way to make that happen. Grilling vegetables brings out such delicious flavours and summer veggies work particularly well for this so a grilled summer israeli couscous salad seemed like the obvious choice!
My little balcony garden herbs are flourishing at the moment so I thought it was time to whip up some more pesto, which I then used to make this super easy, super tasty pesto Israeli couscous salad!
Pearl couscous is one of those ingredients I don’t cook with anywhere near enough, so when I was trying to come up with a salad as part of lunch for Mother’s Day I knew it was time to pull it out of the pantry again. It’s such a great base for a salad, and holds up well for leftovers too (if it lasts that long!).
