Let’s pause at the “Israeli couscous” ingredient!! This is very disturbing that some people are still don’t know that there’s no such thing called “isreal”. It’s only Palestine!😊
ooooh tossing in a sieve with salt never crossed my mind, gotta give that a try!
Calling a kalamata olive "fierce" is so NYT contributor of her
CHICKEN CAM 🐔
As a Kansas Citian, so glad you have KC barbecue sauce 😊
This looks sooooo delicious! Can’t wait to try this!❤
Enjoying this now with a glass of Chardonnay. Thank you for dinner!

Yay! I have wanted your books forever so thank you for linking them on sale! Just received What's for Desert and it's AMAZING! I love how you structure your recipes, it's amazing!!! ❤❤❤❤❤
Hi. Do you know the make and model of the teal van in the thumbnail picture?
Just finished making this for my work lunch and I need to rave about this salad. The best part isn't the simplicity or the quickness in which this is prepared, it's the TEXTURES! You can't distinguish the lentils or the couscous when you're eating it but the texture is distinctly different from plain lentils or plain couscous. Put them together and it's such a game changer. Every bite tastes a little different which makes the entire experience interesting. I'm eating it now as I write this and I can't wait to come up with spinoff flavor combos. THANK YOU CLAIRE AND ALI!
made this , very good 10/10
This has such a Highschool home video vibe
Made this and it’s so good! Yum!
I Dream of Dinner is one of my favorite cookbooks!
I made this tonight and it was such a flavorful and satisfying meal. Think it might become a staple of my cooking rotation!
any balkan would know that that water is pure FLAVOUR im screaming
this is north africa (Tunis, Algeria, Morocco)cuisine not a freak greek
I think Claire is gonna get herself a van…
Made this today and paired with grilled chicken. Absolutely a new staple in my meal prep!
I just want to make a quick point that couscous was never israeli!!
I used orzo pasta instead of Israeli couscous and I used one cup of lentils and one cup of the pasta to serve four (made this for my student flat). There was only a little left over. Turned out well!
I think u would look so beautiful wearing a CHEESEBURGER TOP. I wore this to my prom. all you do is take a cheesburger of ur choice and super glue it to you boobs. I paired mine with a low rise neon orange denim floor length skirt and a hot pink pair of ballerina flats.
