Cous Cous Soup




~special thanks to Candi for this recipe!~


Prep time: 15 min!
Servings: 8

* 8 cups broth (the orignal recipe calls for chicken broth, I used vegetable broth)
* 1 cup cous cous
* 1 1/2 cups diced fresh tomato
* 1-2 thinly sliced, seeded jalapeno peppers
* 1 tbsp lemon juice

1. Bring broth to a boil.
2. Stir in cous cous & cook for 5 minutes. (Meanwhile, dice the tomato & jalapeno.)
3. Add the tomato & jalapeno. Cook for about 8 more minutes.
4. Remove from heat, stir in lemon juice, & serve.

Note: if the soup becomes too thick, add water.

Note: add Tabasco sauce for a Mexican flavor or fresh basil for an Italian flavor!
