Orange Fruit & Nut Cous-Cous Salad

Quick, easy and quite tasty.

Tailor the recipe to how much cous-cous you have, I used left over cous-cous from another recipe from the night before.

3 Cups of cooked cous-cous
2 Oranges, peeled and cut in eight
Small handful of cashews
Small handful of sultanas
One cup of dates, seed removed and roughly chopped
1/2 Cup of orange juice.

Chuck it all in a bowl and mix!

A quick and easy meal for a weekday, or a useful way to use up left over cous-cous.

Quinoa and Kale Pilaf & Mini Quinoa Burgers

 Two super delicious recipes that you only need to buy one set of ingredients for!

I find it frustrating that I always seem to have a huge amount of left over ingredients when making something from a recipe.  These two little gems can be made together and are super easy and super tasty.

Quinoa and Kale Pilaf

Recipe Via

 

When you are making the Pilaf just throw the whole packet of Quinoa in and adjust the water accordingly so you can make..

Mini Quinoa Burgers

Using the leftover Quinoa from the Pilaf, combine in a bowl 

4 Eggs, 1 Tbsp Salt, 1/3 cup Grated Parmesan, 2 Tbsp Minced Garlic. 1 Tbsp Olive Oil, 1 and 1/3 Cups Plain Flour

Mix really well and put a frying pan on the stove with a shallow layer of oil.  Get prepared to get your hands dirty because this mixture is sticky! Ball the mixture into small patties and once the pan has heated up pop them and watch they get golden!

Served here with Spinach, Sour Cream and Dijon-Mayo
