Tex-Mex Couscous

Lately I have been scouring the Internet for not only healthy recipes, but under $5 as well.  I came across this blog called Eat Yourself Skinny.  It has great recipes and they are usually made with things I can find around the house and not have too buy many ingredients for.  Yesterday I tried Tex-Mex Couscous and it is one of Todd and I's new favorites! Todd is a big fan of meals that are all mixed together and can be eaten out of one bowl (rather than entree + sides)...so this satisfied that!  I put a bit of sour cream in mine because it was a tad spicy and Todd loaded his with hot sauce.  You can find the recipe HERE.

I also made Cranberry Oat and Honey Bread for dessert.  I don't have much experience in making breads but this was very simple.  And the best part of it was that I had all the ingredients at home already...so no money spent for me!  I had to cook it a bit longer than it said on the recipe to get the middle to be firm.  We had some for dessert last night and I had a slice with coffee this morning.  Another great recipe from Eat Yourself Skinny!
