1kg butternut pumpkin
garlic powder
mild paprika
nutmeg
olive oil
3 cups couscous
3 cups chicken stock (I make mine from Massel cubes and make it less than full strength - 1 cube for the 3 cups instead of 1 cube for 2 cups)
2 red onions diced
1 red capsicum diced
150g snow peas sliced
1. Cut the pumpkin into bite sized pieces and spread on a tray lined with baking paper. Drizzle with olive oil and lightly sprinkle with garlic, paprika and nutmeg. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Bake at 220°C until tender. Allow to cool.
2. Add boiling stock to couscous in a large bowl and stand for 5 minutes.
3. Meanwhile briefly stir fry onions, capsicum and snow peas in a little olive oil, they should still be slightly crunchy.
4. Fluff couscous with a fork then toss with the vegetables. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Hi there
Yodaobi's friend with the new baby here. Thanks for the comments on my blog, I've been reading yours for a while (I'm a chronic lurker) and I really enjoy it. It's nice reading about someone who really enjoys being a mum.
The salad looks great, I make something similar that I serve hot with grilled moroccan lamb.
P.S I caught up with Yodaobi in NZ and she's looking great.
