Why You’ll Love Jennifer Aniston Couscous Salad
If you loved the original Jennifer Aniston Salad, 🥗 you’ll LOVE the addition of couscous. Couscous has a slightly milder taste than bulgar in the original, but it still helps make the salad substantial and nutritious. Couscous is light and fluffy and a delicious addition to this viral salad recipe. I like to keep the dressing super simple with some 🍋 lemon, olive oil and salt, but you can adjust!
