MORROCCAN FEAST
TURMERIC SPICED EGGPLANT & GARBANZO BEANS SERVED OVER COUSCOUS!
WITH WARM APRICOT AND WALNUT COMPOTE SERVED OVER PEARS!
MY TOP 5 FAVORITE THINGS ABOUT THIS MEAL:
1. THE RAISINS IN THE EGGPLANT DISH SET OFF THE GARLIC AND TURMERIC - YUMMERS!
2. THE COUSCOUS ABSORBED THE TOMATO-BASED SAUCE - YUMMERS!
3. THIS MEAL WAS TOTALLY VEGETARIAN (VEGAN, IN FACT) NO GUILT - YUMMERS!
4. WARM APRICOT COMPOTE WAS EASY TO MAKE, ONCE THE HONEY, LEMON AND ORANGE SAUCE REDUCED IT WAS NOT TOO SWEET, NOT TOO SOUR - YUMMERS!
5. NICE BRIGHT COLORS AND ALL THE VEGETABLES KEPT THEIR SHAPE - NOT TOO SOGGY - YUMMERS!
