Curried Couscous Salad with Dried Fruit

Salads that can be served as either a main or a side are a year-round mainstay of our takeout business, and this is one of our most popular. It has lots of assertive flavors and textures that pair perfectly with everything from barbecued chicken to a savory pot roast. Consider doubling the amount of chickpeas if you plan to serve it on its own as a vegetarian entrée, or add a can of drained tuna for a nice lunch salad.
