A recipe from a good friend.
In a stockpot, bring the couscous, ½ teaspoon of the salt, and the water to a boil.
Turn the heat down to low. Cover & cook for 8 minutes, or until most of the water is absorbed.
When the couscous is cooked, drain it in a colander and rinse it with cool water. Set it aside.
Pour the lemon juice into a large bowl. Drizzle in the olive oil and whisk, adding the scallions and the remaining ½ teaspoon of salt.
Just before serving, add the arugula, tomatoes, feta cheese, and parsley to the couscous. Toss with the olive oil-lemon juice dressing. Season with pepper and serve.

As I was preparing this recipe, I was criticizing the proportions in my head: too much oil, too little feta, too much arugula. I took one bite, however, and forgot it all. The flavours are well balanced and perfectly blended. This is my new favorite lunch salad (although the family loved it for dinner too).
I still wonder if there’s a little too much oil. I think 1/4 cup would suffice. Otherwise, it’s a wonderful recipe, and I’m glad to have made it.
