Thought I'd post this before I leave for the week end: Made this for a pot luck, well received. Israeli couscus cooks up like large tapioca size balls and is a pasta. Avialable most ethnic section of supermarkets. Read more This salad is colorful and very tasty. Key lime juice does make a difference and more pungent than regular limes See less
