Ingredients

  • Success Boil-in-Bag Pearl Couscous
  • 1 large zucchini, sliced
  • 1 cup baby carrots
  • 1 bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup chickpeas, cooked (or canned, drained & rinsed)
  • 2 cups oyster mushrooms
  • ½ cucumber, sliced
  • 1 cup grape tomatoes, sliced
  • 3 tbsp olive oil (divided)
  • ½ tsp sea salt (or to taste)
  • ½ tsp cumin
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • ½ tsp paprika
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp dried dill
  • 1 lemon, juiced (plus extra slices for serving)

Instructions

  • Step 1

    Marinate mushrooms: In a small bowl, toss oyster mushrooms with 1 tbsp olive oil, a pinch of sea salt, black pepper, cumin, garlic powder, and paprika. Let marinate while you prepare the vegetables (at least 10 minutes).

    Step 2

    Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).

    Step 3

    Prepare roasted vegetables: On a baking sheet, toss zucchini, carrots, bell pepper, and chickpeas with 1 tbsp olive oil, sea salt, cumin, paprika, onion powder, and garlic powder. Roast for 25 minutes, stirring halfway, until tender and golden.

    Step 4

    Cook mushrooms: Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add marinated oyster mushrooms and cook for 6–8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden and slightly crispy on the edges.

    Step 5

    Cook Pearl Couscous: Meanwhile, prepare the Success Boil-in-Bag Pearl Couscous according to package directions (usually 5 minutes in boiling water, then fluff with a fork).

    Step 6

    Assemble bowls: Divide Pearl Couscous between two bowls. Top with roasted vegetables, sautéed marinated mushrooms, fresh cucumber, and tomatoes.

    Step 7

    Finish: Sprinkle with fresh cilantro, squeeze fresh lemon juice over, and serve with extra lemon slices.
