Ingredients
2 cups couscous cooked to yield 4 cups cooked
1 pack bodi or string beans cut in ½ inch pieces
15 – 20 white button mushrooms, quartered

3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
¼ cup chicken stock or water

½ tsp black pepper

- Add the chicken stock and mix well. Let the stock reduce a bit.
- Stir in the green seasoning and pepper sauce.
