Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Can substitute pearl couscous for Israeli couscous.

    One of my favorite “soups” though there wasn’t much broth compared to couscous. It’s bright, comforting, and in our regular rotation for fall/winter.

    Used couscous & it was yummy! Comforting for the soul

    This is a go-to soup for me, especially with leftover or rotisserie chicken. You can modify with whatever vegetables you have. Homemade stock and the bay leaf really make a difference here.

    I used dried herbs and Israeli couscous. I didn't use the optional cayenne. I had cooked a whole chicken with some an onion, celery stalk and carrot earlier in week to use in several recipes. I used some of the chicken and broth in this recipe. This was delicious.
