COUS-COUS SALAD WITH BLUE CHEESE

This salad does well when it�s made ahead. It will last stored in the fridge for up to two days and, in fact, tastes a little better if allowed to do so. By resting, the flavors of the dressing are able to mingle and penetrate the grains of cous-cous. This is also a great when served warm or cold, giving you flexibility depending on your menu. Best of all, the flavors are adaptable. If you don�t want blue cheese feel free to substitute a different tangy cheese, or dried currants work well if you don�t have craisins on hand. The point is, have fun with the flavors and rest assured that this will fit all of your side dish needs this summer. From the Naptimechep.com
