I like it a lot! I've just finished and have been doing quality checks since I mixed it and while I put it on my dish for me and my son and at some point I'm sure it will make it to the dinner table. I had to use lime juice in stead of lemon because I don't have lemon, but I think it gives it that extra zing that some might have been missing. I haven't even added the salt and pepper yet! I'm finding that I really like black beans, that might have something to do with it also.

My 14 year old son and I both LOVED this recipe. Exactly as written. It's healthy and tasty. It's great for lunch the next day too!

I followed the tips from the other folks and sauteed some garlic in olive oil before adding the chicken stock to the pot. I also used a 6 oz bag of fresh spinach and microwaved it in a covered bowl and then mixed all ingredients into that serving bowl when it was time, and added a few pantry spices when I tossed it all together. It wasn't bad - still not a whole lot of flavor, and I really couldn't taste the black beans, but everyone ate it so thats a good sign. I don't plan on making it again though.

Very healthy, indeed, but lacked flavor. Unless I add some additional flavors (haven't decided which, I won't make it again..

I prepared as written and topped with parm cheese. I will make again, but will get garlic into the dish somehow.

This was pretty good but I made a few changes. I used whole wheat couscous for added nutrution. I added chopped cooked chicken to make this a main dish. I also added parmesean cheese. Onions or garlic might be a good addition, too. This was good, but it tastes like it sounds. VERY healthy.

I had never made couscous before. I cooked it in water because I didn't have stock on hand. It turned out pretty well, although I think it would have been tastier made with stock. Next time I'll cook it in stock and maybe add something extra, like sauteed onion and/or garlic. Overall a very easy and healthy side dish.

I would serve this recipe with a dash of nutmeg and grated parmesan cheese.
