Combining couscous with veg and meat or fish is a great way to add starchy carbs for a nice rounded meal, especially when you sweeten it up with dried or pureed fruits. This recipe will give you enough for 1 toddler portion and will last for a day or two in the fridge, but doesn’t freeze. It’s so easy and quick though, you can easily make it fresh in a couple of minutes. Couscous is great for picnics, but we find littler ones prefer it to be a tad moister, so you may want to tweak the water content accordingly.
