INSTRUCTIONS
The following is from _Lean Bean Cuisine_ by Jay Solomon, published by
Prima Publishing in 1995. I haven't tried this but I love the cookbook, in
fact I love all his cookbooks. NOt always low fat or fatfree but most are
easily converted.

15 grams protein 7 grams dietary fiber

(he says 12 grams of fat but that is with the 2 tablespoons oil that I have
omitted.)
saute onions and bell pepper in 2 tablespoons water for about 5 minutes.
Add tomato and garlic and cook for 4 minutes more. Stir in the remaining
ingredients (except couscous) and cook for 30 minutes over medium heat
until the squash is tender. Stir occasionally.
Stir in the couscous, cover and let sit for 10 minutes.
