Steps:
- Cook's Note: To toast the almonds, arrange in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake in a preheated 350 degrees F oven for 6 to 8 minutes until lightly toasted. Cool completely before using.
- Special equipment: 24-count nonstick mini-muffin pan; 2 1/2-inch round cookie cutter
- For the pastry cups: Place an oven rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Spray a 24-count nonstick mini-muffin pan with vegetable oil cooking spray. Unroll the pie crusts on a lightly floured work surface. Using a 2 1/2-inch round cookie cutter, cut 12 circles of dough from each crust. Press the dough into the prepared muffin cups. Bake until light golden, 10 minutes. Cool completely before filling, 15 minutes.
- For the salad: Bring the broth, orange zest, orange juice and cumin to a boil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Stir in the couscous and remove the pan from the heat. Cover the pan until the liquid had been absorbed and the couscous is tender, 5 to 6 minutes. Fluff the couscous and break up any lumps, using a fork. Toss together the couscous, mandarin oranges, almonds and parsley in a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
- For the dressing: Whisk together the oil, orange juice, vinegar, salt and pepper in a small bowl until smooth.
- To assemble: Pour the dressing over the salad and toss until coated. Spoon the mixture into the cooled pastry cups and serve.
PERFECT COUSCOUS
Couscous isn't a grain, as some people may think - it's actually a type of pasta made from durum wheat and shaped like a grain. The couscous you have in your pantry is most likely instant couscous that's been steamed and dried so it cooks very quickly, for a fast and easy side dish or base for a salad or bowl. Look for whole wheat couscous in your supermarket; it cooks in the same time as the regular variety and has all the virtues of whole wheat pasta. This recipe makes a big batch for make-ahead meal prep but is easily halved.

Steps:
- Combine the water or broth, olive oil and 1 teaspoon salt in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil. Stir in the couscous and immediately remove from the heat. Cover and let sit 5 minutes.
- Fluff the couscous thoroughly with a fork (the more you fluff, the more separate and light the grains will be). Season with salt and pepper. If you are making the couscous ahead, spread while hot on a baking sheet lined with parchment to stop the cooking as it cools. Once cool, refrigerate in an airtight container up to 5 days.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 Fahrenheit.
- Spread the walnuts on a baking sheet and roast them for 5 minutes, just until they turn slightly more brown (this can also be done in a small skillet on top of the stove. Stir them constantly so they don't burn).
- Set a large saute pan containing the oil over low heat for less than a minute. Drop in the garlic and the shallots. Add the soy sauce, wine, and mushrooms and simmer covered until the mushrooms are tender, about 10 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to shake the mushrooms so the cooking liquid falls back into the pan (reserve the liquid), then place the drained mushrooms, cavity-side-up, in a baking dish.
- Bring the stock or water to a boil in a separate pot, pour in the couscous, reduce the heat, and simmer covered for two minutes. Remove from heat and let it stand, covered, for 10 minutes, until all the liquid is absorbed. Dump the couscous into the skillet with the reserved mushroom liquid and cook over low heat until all the liquid is absorbed.
- Lightly season the mushroom caps with salt and pepper. Mix the remaining ingredients, including the nuts, into the cooked couscous. Using a tablespoon, pile a small mound of filling inside the cap of each mushroom. Bake for 10 minutes or until the stuffing is lightly browned on top.
