Food Mondays!

Ok, I am absolutely not promising anything, but I would like to start and end-of-year resolution that each Monday I do a new post, preferably with a new recipe. Monday is a good day for blogging since I usually watch my Programs and do some sitting on my ass.
So it is resolved: new food posts on Mondays! I'll start today, even though I made a post already about all the other stuff I've been doing instead of blogging. Here goes:

Citrus-Cilantro Cous Cous

Citrus-Cilantro Cous Cous
This recipe came from the October 2011 issue of "Everyday Food" which is a tamed-down Martha Stewart cooking magazine with fewer strange ingredients than her regular magazine. It's super easy and tasty in a mild and comforting way.
Boil 1.5 C water. (I salted mine slightly.) Stir in 2 T. orange zest and 1.5 C plain cous cous. Cover and remove from heat. Stand 5 minutes then mix in 1/4 C chopped fresh cilantro while fluffing with a  fork. Season with coarse salt.

My only note would be to buy two oranges because one average sized navel orange doesn't make 2 T zest. I used 1 orange worth, and I think it could go with more.

While I'm at it, have you tried these yet? Just Apples dehydrated apples. They are tart and awesome. Kinda pricey, but if they keep me munching on green apple bits rather than jelly beans, then they are worth it. Best part is the ingredients list: apples.

And because I just can't help it:

Isn't he cute?!
