Avocado and Red Pepper Israeli Couscous

The creamy avocado goes so well with the soft, fluffy couscous. And the red peppers add a bit of sweetness and crunch to the dish. It’s subtly flavored, and so, so good.

This has the potential to be a nice mild side dish, but it needs a little bit more. I added some garlic and onion power to taste and it kicked up the flavor just enough without overpowering a mild main dish like fish.

This was good but only ok. I'm not sure if it was a user error on my part but it came out a little bland. All of the ingredients are things that I love but it required a lot of salt to be really good.
