I made this with raisins instead of dates because i didnt have dates on hand and it was very good. I still want to try it with dates.

Unfortunately the closest thing I had to dates was a box of raisins. I think it still tasted delicious, and my family loved it. I will make this again, next time I'll use the dates.

I'm a big fan of fruity couscous, so I knew this would be good. It was a hit with the whole family, and went really well with the meatballs featured in the episode.
