    I stuffed peppers with this last week (using a little extra cheese for topping)--delicious.

    great idea, Kendra! You could stuff piquillo peppers with this for a nice appretizer for a party too!

    Chef Leslie--would you serve those in raw peppers, or could you roast them or batter and fry them? Just wondering since I've got a party coming up.

    I would serve them in roasted peppers. You COULD batter them and fry them if you wanted to. If you want to do that, whip up some egg whites to a thick almost meringue texture and dip stuffed pepper in a little flour then the egg white (so it will stick) drop in hot oil (350 degree) and deep fry for about 1-2 minutes until golden brown. Drain on a paper towel and serve.

    I improvised on this as I was staying at my SIL house and didn't have a couple of ingredients. My kids liked it and said it was a keeper.

    Loved it but my fiancé was not a fan of the feta cheese in. He would rather eat couscous plain. Didn't have lemon juice at the time but I thought it was great without it.

    Couscous kind of reminds me of grits. You either love them or leave them. The same recipe can be made with bow tie pasta plus or minus spinach.
