Instructions
Heat some oil in a large pan.
Add all the veggies, except tomatoes, olives, and cucumber. Season with salt and pepper and saute for 5 minutes.
Add couscous and water. Cover, then boil until fluffy and all the water has been absorbed.
Remove from heat. Add diced tomatoes, cucumber, olives, and chopped fresh parsley. Add olive oil to taste. Mix.
I prefer this couscous salad served cold, but you can also eat it while it's hot.
