INGREDIENTS 


  • 1/3 cup golden couscous (about 3/4 cup cooked)

  • 1 shallot, thinly sliced

  • 1 cup summer squash, thinly sliced

  • 2 eggs

  • 2 Tbsp basil, torn

  • 1 tsp extra virgin olive oil

  • kosher salt

  • pepper

INSTRUCTIONS 


Cook couscous according to package directions.

Heat olive oil in a nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Sauté shallot for 1 to 2 minutes, until fragrant and slightly translucent. Add summer squash and sauté for 2 to 4 minutes, flipping occasionally. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Reduce heat to low.

Whisk eggs in a bowl and add to the squash mixture. Let eggs just set and gently fold in couscous. Season with a few pinches of salt and pepper. Cover with a tight-fitting lid and cook, until eggs are thoroughly cooked, about 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat and top with basil.

Notes


Use a gluten-free grain like buckwheat, quinoa, or rice to make it gluten-free.
