The “crust” for this quick and easy “pie” is made from a layer of whole wheat couscous. Couscous is a tiny, precooked pasta from Morocco. All you need to do to enjoy its global flavor is add boiling water and it’s ready in three minutes. Read more Even better, whole-wheat couscous has all the nutrition of 100 percent whole grain. The soaked couscous is topped with a layer of herbed cheese, mixed vegetables, canned salmon and mozzarella, and warmed through in a hot oven. Hint: you will need a little vegetable oil to coat the pie pan. See less
