This weekend is Karen Gowen’s Labor Day Weekend BBQ Blogfest.
I’m starting with an easy recipe, followed by LOL Cats and food.
Sometimes the best dishes are by accident. This one is a result of not having the right ingredients and compromising. (I do that a lot!)
Cous Cous Medley
Cook one cup couscous - best to find a box of “add to boiling water and wait 5 minutes” - and add one bouillon cube to the water
Saute one medium onion in a pan with a little oil, salt, and pepper
Add 1/2 cup peas and 1/2 cup corn to mix and heat through
Remove from heat, add 2 Tbsp soy sauce
Add cooked couscous and serve!
Wonderful week-end sillies as usual what a way to start my Saturday,
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your week-end.
Yvonne.
I was just chuckling until... Gulliver! (LOL)
ReplyDeleteHave a great long weekend!
Jules @ Trying To Get Over The Rainbow
ah, Gulliver is so precious! We need more pics of him :)
ReplyDeleteCouscous is delicious and healthy, I like your recipe, really I should try this more often. And I've always wondered-- do you have a real cat?
ReplyDeleteKaren, I have two black cats named Rocko & Spunky and before that we had Calvin & Hobbes.
ReplyDeleteLove Gulliver! Almost ruined my keyboard.
ReplyDeleteI do the compromise thing a lot, too.
Happy Weekend!
Gulliver wins!
ReplyDeleteHi Diane .. love the couscous .. I often have it .. delicious - those catz should not be allowed out - they're great fun to read and see -
ReplyDeleteCheers enjoy the BBQ fest .. and the rest of Labour day weekend .. Hilary
No need to give me recipes, no sane cat would eat my products anyway, but thank you for an ENTERTAINING post about food :D
ReplyDeleteHa! Love the kitties!
ReplyDeleteAnd the cous cous recipe sounds perfect for a bbq!
I love the home cooking one.
ReplyDeleteStrangely we ended up with a similar cous cous dish the other night too - only thing missing was the soya sauce :)
ReplyDeleteLove Gulliver :)
LOL, I like "Even the Kitty doesn't like your cooking. Good to show this to your best enemy.
ReplyDeleteEvery Savage Can Reproduce
Jemi, the soy sauce really makes the difference.
ReplyDeleteHi Diand! I've come from Karen's BBQ! Wanted to stop by, say hello and visit your blog! I was adopted by a litter of kittens this year. It's been so fun! They are living on my back porch. Great to meet you!
ReplyDeleteRecipe sounds yummy. I'm always substituting ingredients, so no dish ever turns out the same way twice. Great cat pics!
ReplyDeleteyour cous cous sounds delicious. I'll have to give it a go.
ReplyDeleteFunny! Liked how you followed the cooking theme. But that poor Gulliver--he's a candidate for The Biggest Loser!
ReplyDeleteI love the kitty cooking theme; great pics! ;D
ReplyDeleteAll these are funny, But in reality, Gulliver's weight is alarming. Time for the owner to buy a kittie treadmill.
