Spicy Moroccan Turkey Stew Weight Watchers

Submitted by cherij22

"This recipe I got out of the Weight Watchers cookbook Nov/Dec 2007. I have made it with or without the coucous and it's really good either way. It's a different tasting stew than i'm used to but it had a nice flavor. This stew is 4 points for 1 cup serving of stew & 1/2 cup couscous."
