Instructions

  1. Cook the couscous for 10-15 minutes, or according to instructions on packaging. Drain and rinse when done.
  2. Prepare the dressing. Add the mustard, avocado, lemon juice, garlic, salt and water to a blender or food processor and blend until smooth.
  3. Add the couscous to a bowl, together with drained and rinsed chickpeas, red onion, tomatoes, olives, and spinach. Stir together.
  4. Serve with the avocado dressing, as well as almonds and vegan feta as garnishes.

Notes

  • Store this couscous salad separately from the dressing in an airtight container for up to 4 days. I would recommend making the avocado dressing on the same day as you plan on eating the salad, but you can also keep it in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
