Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

  • 1 rutabaga, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch chunks

  • 2 cups water

  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

  • 1 ½ cups couscous

  • ½ cup nutritional yeast

  • ¼ cup vegetable oil

  • ¼ cup apple cider vinegar

  • 1 ½ teaspoons honey

  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano

  • 1 teaspoon dried dill weed

  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper

  • ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper

  • 1 pinch salt to taste (Optional)

Directions

  1. Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer; bring to a boil. Add the rutabaga and steam until just tender, about 10 minutes.

  2. Bring 2 cups water and 1 tablespoon vegetable oil to a boil in a saucepan. Remove from the heat and stir in the couscous. Cover and let stand until the water is absorbed, about 14 minutes; fluff with a fork.

  4. Stir couscous and rutabaga into the nutritional yeast dressing. Season with salt.
