About Salad with couscous and pumpkin seeds

Salad with Couscous and Pumpkin Seeds is a flavorful fusion of Mediterranean-inspired ingredients packed with nutrients. This vibrant dish features fluffy, quick-cooking couscous as its base, combined with crunchy pumpkin seeds, fresh greens like spinach or arugula, diced cucumber, and cherry tomatoes. It's often enhanced with a drizzle of olive oil, lemon juice, and herbs like parsley for a refreshing, wholesome taste. Couscous provides energy-rich carbohydrates, while pumpkin seeds deliver essential minerals such as magnesium and zinc, along with heart-healthy fats. The fresh veggies contribute fiber, antioxidants, and vitamins to the dish, supporting overall health. Although nutritious, moderation is important as couscous is calorie-dense and pumpkin seeds high in fat. Perfect as a light meal or side, this salad embodies balance, offering both vitality and a satisfying crunch in every bite.
