1 cup water
3/4 cup uncooked couscous
1 cup shredded fat-free mozzarella cheese
1 cup diced seeded tomatoes
1/2 cup finely snipped fresh parsley
12 kalamata olives, finely chopped
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

directions
In a small saucepan, bring the water to a boil over high heat. Remove from the heat. Stir in the couscous. Let stand, covered, for 5 minutes, or until the liquid is absorbed. Fluff the couscous with a fork.
Spread the couscous in a thin layer on a baking sheet or sheet of aluminum foil. Let stand for 5 minutes, or until cooled.
Meanwhile, in a large bowl, stir together the remaining ingredients except the spinach. Add the couscous. Toss gently to blend. Add the spinach and toss gently.

The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.
This iconic whiskey is a "Jack of all trades" when it comes to cooking. Toss it in some pasta, as a savory dipping sauce, and even bake it into something sweet.

It was a great way to add a healthy carb to the meal. I actually omitted olives, and used less pepper flakes as per my likes. Overall taste was good.

I thoroughly enjoyed this refreshing healthy salad. Having traveled to the Middle East recently,find the salad to be very reminiscent of the salads I had eaten there. For my own taste preference, I put in a little less lemon juice and a little less red pepper flakes - otherwise followed the recipe as written. It was great!
