  • ADD mushroom mixture to cous cous and add finely diced sundried tomatoes, cayenne pepper if using and fat-free cheese (NOTE: Not tomatoes soaked in oil).
  • ADD 2 cups stock and cover for about 20 minutes until liquid is absorbed. (NOTE: Would suggest you stir about every 4 minutes as cheese might cause mixture to stick).
  • HEAT GRILLER.
