Moroccan Seafood and Broccoli Salad

modified version of a jane brody recipe. you can substitute sliced surimi sticks for the shrimp or scallops but, if you do so, do not add until salad has been dressed and tossed or the surimi will shred. cooking (passive) time also includes chilling time.

Couscous with Savory Caramelized Onion

this is the first moroccan dish i've ever cooked for my family, and they were thoroughly impressed. i thought with all the rich spices, it might be too overwhelming for the kids, but they really enjoyed the combination. a good change from cold couscous salad for the winter. (from the toronto star)

Crispy Roasted Chickpeas with Moroccan Spices

this is a great mid-afternoon snack by itself or sprinkle them on a salad or add some nuts. i used garbanzo beans from my freezer i cooked earlier and tripled the recipe so i'd have extra on hand. kalyn says garbanzo beans are one of the world's healthiest foods--one of the highest protein levels in plants and also a low-glycemic food. roasted chickpeas are eaten in turkey as a snack called leblebi. this recipe came from kalyn's kitchen--the moroccan spice mix is from fine cooking magazine. kalyn keeps moroccan spice mix on hand to flavor veggies as well.
