Ingredients

1 cup couscous

1 ¼ cups vegetable broth (or water)

1 medium zucchini, diced

1 bell pepper (red or yellow), diced

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1 red onion, diced

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1 teaspoon garlic powder

Salt and pepper, to taste

½ cup feta cheese, crumbled

¼ cup fresh parsley, chopped

Juice of 1 lemon

Instructions

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

Prepare the Veggies: In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced zucchini, bell pepper, cherry tomatoes, and red onion. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and sprinkle with oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.

Roast the Vegetables: Spread the vegetable mixture on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized. Stir halfway through for even roasting.

Cook the Couscous: While the veggies are roasting, bring the vegetable broth or water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Stir in the couscous, remove from heat, cover, and let it sit for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork once done.

Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked couscous, roasted vegetables, remaining tablespoon of olive oil, crumbled feta cheese, chopped parsley, and lemon juice. Toss gently to ensure everything is evenly mixed.

Taste and Adjust: Sample the salad and adjust seasoning with more salt, pepper, or lemon juice, if desired.

Serve: Serve the salad warm or at room temperature, and enjoy this vibrant dish packed with flavor!
