Life updates...and Couscous with Chicken, Tomato, and Spinach

These days, time is a pretty precious commodity.  Being a full-time doctoral student with a graduate assistantship...and a new puppy(!!!)  Yes, I adopted a puppy back in April.  His name is Leo.  His mom was a mini poodle/cocker spaniel mix.  I adopted him from the Athens Area Humane Society.  You should check them out!!

Having a puppy is amazing but it's definitely hard work (and very time consuming).  I've still been trying to keep up with some good eats, so I've been making meals that are pretty quick and painless.  This is one of those recipes.

I adapted this from the WW Simple Start program.  The recipes they give you are only for one portion, but this basically made about 3 portions for me.

Ingredients
1 box, couscous (I used Near East)
1 can, diced tomato
1 cup, chopped spinach (I used frozen)
9 oz. chicken breast, grilled, cut into chunks
Garlic powder


1. Prepare couscous according to directions on box.

2. Add diced tomato and spinach.  Season with garlic powder.



3. Add grilled chicken.  Serve immediately.
