Recipe review: Zucchini couscous

      Recently for a party I decided to bring my favorite recipe of my creation. I used a recipe for Italian Zucchini as a starting point and then I added other savory ingredients until I created my Zucchini Couscous. It makes a delicious main dish or side dish, and the left overs are great. Since I started with a recipe and added my own ingredients I've never written down any sort of instructions. So here goes!

1 cup diced onion
2 zucchinis sliced and quartered
1 cup vegetable broth (you can use any meaty variation if you'd like)
1 8.5 oz box of dry seasoned couscous (I prefer parmesan herb)
1/2 cup feta cheese

Heat olive oil over medium heat and lightly brown the onion. Add zucchini and cook until tender (about 10 minutes). Add broth and cook to a boil and then simmer for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, cook couscous per directions on the box. Combine zucchini mix and couscous. Remove from heat and allow to cool. Mix in feta cheese while zucchini couscous is still warm.
