What's for Dinner: Couscous, Chickpeas, and Brussels Sprouts | V, SF, GF

Sometimes, I just don't want to cook. I want fabulous food, but I don't want to roll up my sleeves and get it done.

That's where this meal comes in.

It's a true set-and-forget oven meal. Literally, the couscous just takes boiling some water and lemon juice, pouring in the couscous, and removing it from heat while covered. The chickpeas & brussels sprouts get a healthy coating of extra virgin olive oil, garlic and lemon juice, then they get to chill out (or heat up) in the oven for 45 minutes or so.

I apologize for the awful cell phone picture. BOTH of my camera batteries were dead. :(

The recipe is an adaptation of my roasted chickpeas and green beans recipe in my cookbook. I simply substituted brussels sprouts for the green beans.
