ALICIA D TILLEY) I am new here and  wish to greet everybody.  I also
have a recipe to share that my  family (kids included) love.  My
husband and my 4 year old son have a  slight case of reflux and we have
found that when we cut fat and meat  out it tended to reduce the
effects of the disorder. I have been  looking for something like this
for a long time.  Hi! Here is one of my absolute favorite recipes.  My
husband lived in  Africa as a baby and loves couscous and I found this
vegetarian  recipe for him. It does have a smidgen of pecans, but the
dish would  be lost without it and it only contains less than 1% fat
for the  entire dish. High fiber,low fat, lacto vegetarian, delicious.
In small saucepan, combine water and salt.  Bring to a boil.  Remove
from heat; immediately stir in couscous.  Cover; let stand 5 minutes.
Fluff couscous with a fork; cool 20 minutes till room temp.  Meanwhile,
in small bowl, combine all dressing ingredients; blend  well.  In
medium bowl, combine celery, onions, pecans, cilantro,  kiwi, dressing
and couscous; toss gently to coat. Serve immediately  or refrigerate
until serving time. To serve, scoop couscous mixture  into 4 plates.
Decoratively arrange mango slices and strawberries  around couscous
mixture. If desire, garnish with sprigs of cilantro.  4 servings 310
