Because Couscous is a pasta and pretty much the bulk of the recipe the other ingredients added to the salad needed to provide flavor. Feta cheese lent it’s full flavor and tang while the juice of a lemon brightened the salad. Adding a cup of diced English Cucumbers gave the salad the crunch I love. (It’s all about textures for me.) The fresh parsley provided color and flavor while the garlic powder and salt seasoned it perfectly.
