This Pearl Couscous Salad With Creamy Harissa Dressing plant-based meal prep recipe is so delicious and comes together in under 20 minutes, with couscous being the only part that requires cooking. I love adding turmeric to my grains when it fits the flavor profile, and the added black pepper and olive oil bring extra taste but also boost the curcumin absorption (that’s the active ingredient in turmeric). Combined with the chickpeas and crunchy veggies, it’s an absolute dream for your taste buds, and the creamy harissa dressing really makes it! It’s sweet, spicy, and tangy all at the same time. Here, I used lemon and grapefruit, but orange would also work very well.
