COUSCOUS, CORN, AND BLACK BEAN CHICKEN SALAD
This is one of my favorite salads, and is a great way to use leftover chicken! The flavor combination of all the veggies and pop of vinegar makes this couscous salad really stand out. Refrigerating is optional. Bon appetit!

CHICKEN, CORN, AND COUSCOUS SALAD
I got this recipe from Martha Stewart's magazine; originally it did not include the chicken but I wanted to add something so it could be a meal by itself. If you'd rather not have the chicken just use another 1/4 cup couscous and another 1 cup corn instead. This makes just enough for me to have it for dinner and next day's lunch; as a side dish I'm guessing it would be enough for three or four.
