This was absolutely delicious!! I substituted sundried tomatoes for currants and greek yogurt for creme fraiche as recommended by previous reviewers. Not only was this incredible hot out of the oven but also cold when we ate the leftover mixture while waiting for dinner to be ready. It had a completely different flavor and texture when cold and could definitely be served as a side salad (Yummy! Definitely a keeper!!! Thanks Giada for another amazing recipe!

Excellent recipe! I substituted sun-dried tomatoes for the currants and fat-free plain yogurt for the creme fraiche. My girlfriend was highly impressed and now she wants me to cook more often :

Yum!! Made this once, but with quinoa, and omitted the basil sauce. Paired with Rachael Ray's Southwest Turkey Burgers - amazing. The second time around I chopped up the peppers and added them to the other ingredients for a fresh, cool salad. Made a slaw-like dressing by whisking together 2/3 c mayo, 1 tbsp white wine vinegar, 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar, 2 tbsp vegetable oil, 2 1/2 tbsp sugar, 1/2 tsp celery salt, 1/4 tsp salt, pepper, and 1 garlic clove, pressed. Combined everything and squeezed some fresh lemon juice over the top. Soooooooo good! Going to try spreading it into a tortilla with sprouts and chicken for a tasty wrap.

This recipe was fantastic! I used dried cranberries instead of currants, and used sour cream instead of creme fraise. This recipe was a hit with my family and I have now made it three times.

This recipe is incredible and pretty healthy! My family said it was restaurant quality. I substituted nonfat Greek yogurt for creme fraiche and sun-dried tomatoes for currants. The basil sauce was great as well. The recipe made extra cous-cous filling, which I revamped for lunch and dinner the next day.

Great recipe, and healthy too! I added roasted sweet potato, caramelized onions and sauteed mushrooms to the couscous mixture. Can also be made with quinoa. Substituted nonfat yogurt for the creme fraiche and it was delicious!

This is really, really good. I am a vegetarian and substitute the chicken stock for veggie stock. The sauce is amazing and I always make extra.

Delicious! I used dried cherries instead of currants and I made a "parsley" sauce with a few dashes of Italian dressing. All I can say is Yummy! Don't miss out on this recipe, so very good.
