Скачать или смотреть Chimichuri Pearl Couscous Salad

A summer salad if I ever made one, and an easy, healthy dinner recipe! Or a meal prep meal you can make once and keep throughout the week (which is exactly how I used it!).

This chilled salad focuses on the forgotten summer vegetables, and the ones that are usually better cooked. Enter scene: eggplant and zucchini. But even if you aren't a fan of either of these vegetables (how dare you??), this salad might change your mind. A zippy zucchini chimichurri, fried halloumi, and pearl couscous hold together all the veg, making it feel more like a pasta than a salad. Even if it's technically...both?
