Method · 40 min
  1. Start by making the chickpea hummus. In a blender, combine the chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, peeled garlic, a drizzle of oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Blend until smooth and creamy.
  2. Prepare the couscous according to the package directions. Usually, you just pour it into a bowl, cover it with boiling water, and let it steep for a few minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, dice the vegetables. Heat a drizzle of oil in a nonstick pan. Add the carrots first and sauté for a few minutes, then add the peppers and finally the zucchini. Sauté the vegetables over medium heat until tender but still crunchy.
  4. Once ready, fluff the couscous with a fork and add the sautéed vegetables. Toss well to distribute them evenly.
  5. Serve the vegetable couscous on individual plates with a generous portion of chickpea hummus in the center.
