I have made this same salad with the addition of a tablespoon of olive oil for years. I find the flavors are sweeter and the texture lighter without any added oil. (10-4oz servings)

• 2 ¼ cups dry couscous
• ¼ cup diced red onions
• 2 3/4 cups orange juice
• 1 Tbsp. apple cider vinegar
• 1/3 cup currants
• 1 tsp. ginger powder
• ½ tsp. salt
• 3/4 tsp. black pepper
• 1 cup chopped cilantro

Place couscous and onions in a stainless or glass 10x12x2 baking pan. Bring all other ingredients, except for cilantro, to a boil. Pour over couscous and stir once briefly. Cover the pan with a lid or cookie sheet and set in the refrigerator until cool. Fluff couscous very gently with a fork while adding cilantro.
