About

When you’re looking for a really quick and easy meal, this is the one to cook. Couscous is notoriously fast, and Broccolini’s slender stalks tenderize rapidly as well. Halloumi is a creamy semisoft cheese with a slightly salty flavor. When fried and combined with carrot, raisins, chickpeas, and cashews, this is the kind of stand-alone salad we look for when we need hot food quickly.
