Simple Couscous Salad

• 1 cup whole wheat couscous (regular couscous also works)
• 1 cup chicken stock
• 1/4 cup garlic-infused olive oil or 1/4 cup fat-free Italian salad dressing
• 1/2 cup green onion, thinly sliced
• 1/2 cup red bell pepper, finely chopped
• 1/2 cup reduced-fat feta cheese, crumbled
• 2 tablespoons fresh basil, chopped
• salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste

1. To make your own garlic-infused olive oil: Thinly slice two cloves of garlic. Add to a small saucepan with olive oil. Heat on medium-low until garlic just begins to brown - do not burn garlic! Remove from heat and use a slotted spoon to remove garlic from oil. Discard garlic slices. Set aside oil.
2. In a medium saucepan, bring chicken stock to a boil.
3. Remove from heat and stir in couscous. Cover and let stand for 5 minutes.
4. Fluff couscous with a fork. One at a time, stir in the remaining ingredients (starting with oil/dressing) until well combined.
