Ingredients

• 1 box Roasted Garlic & Olive Oil Wheat Couscous (Near East)
• 1 1/4 cup water
  
• 2 tsp olive oil
  
• 1/4 cup raisins
  
• 1/4 tsp cinnamon
  
  

The first time i made couscous, I couldn't believe how easy it was!  It really is just as easy as making a Cup O Noodles soup!  Using a large microwave safe bowl, combine water, seasoning packet (inside couscous box), olive oil, cinnamon, and raisins.  Cook in the microwave for 5-6 minutes.  Remove from the microwave and immediately stir in the couscous.   Cover and set aside for at least 5 minutes.  Fluff with a fork immediately before serving.  (For me, I can barely tell the difference between wheat and regular couscous.  Its not like wheat pasta where it is obviously different.)

Servings: 4 • Calories: 213 • Fat: 9g • Carbs: 11g • Fiber: 2g • WW Points:5

Ingredients

• 1 lb mahi mahi (Or any other firm, mild white fish)
  
• 4 tsp olive oil
  
• 1/4 tsp pepper
  
• 1 cup chopped onion
• 2 tsp minced garlic
• 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp cumin
• 1 can (14 to 15 oz) diced tomatoes
• 1/4 cup pitted Kalamata olives, halved
  

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.  Place fish on a pan  and drizzle  with 2 tsp of olive oil.  Sprinkle with the pepper.  Bake for 10-12 minutes or until fillets are cooked through. 

Heat remaining 2 tsp oil in a large saucepan over medium heat.  Add onion and cover.  Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until tender.  Add garlic, cumin, and cinnamon.  Cook for a couple of minutes until fragrant.  This is such an interesting combination of ingredients, isn't it? :D 

Stir in tomatoes and olives.

Simmer for 3 minutes for flavors to blend.  Spoon about 1/2 cup of sauce over each serving of fish.  Serve with couscous on the side.
