    • 1/4 tsp cumin

  • Sautéed Veggies:
    • 1 cup sliced or chopped Brussels Sprouts (stems removed)
    • 2-3 Tbsp whole almonds
    • 3-4 oz mushrooms of choice, sliced
    • 1 shallot, sliced
    • 1 garlic clove, minced
    • 1 tsp olive oil
    • 1/2 tsp liquid smoke (optional)
    • 1 pinch ground coriander (optional)
    • Sea salt and pepper to taste

    • 1 pinch of sea salt

    • 1 tsp vegan butter
  • Other Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Black beans: Sauté the black beans in olive oil in a nonstick pan with the seasonings over medium to high heat for just about 3-4 minutes.
  2. Sautéed Veggies: Add the shallot, garlic, Brussels sprouts and mushrooms to a medium to large nonstick pan and sauté in the olive oil over medium to high heat for 5 minutes. Add the almonds and seasonings and reduce heat to medium. Mix well and cook for 3-5 minutes (until the mushrooms are crispy golden brown).
  3. Couscous: Add the couscous to a small bowl or cup and cover with boiling water (just enough to cover the couscous + about 1 cm more). Mix well, add the seasonings and butter, cover with a plate and let sit for 5 minutes. Note: if it’s too dry, simply add a little more hot water.
  4. Assemble: Serve everything in a bowl with the spinach and cilantro dip and enjoy!
