spiced couscous galette with queso fresco
“Embark on a gastronomic journey with our Spiced Couscous Galette featuring the creamy richness of Queso Fresco. Immerse yourself in the delightful fusion of savory spiced couscous, creating a culinary masterpiece.”
I can’t even deal.
As in, trying not to binge watch.
After last season’s complete “meh” fest, I honestly thought House of Cards was dunzo. Mr. B and I both thought season two was heavy and a little far fetched. The entire time we kept saying, “We get it. Just make Franics POTUS already. Geeeez.”
Well, thankfully the writers got their Big Chief tablet out and started really writing because I am flipping obsessed with season three. I won’t give away any details, but I love how Claire is kicking ass and taking names. Plus, her wardrobe this season….so fierce. Also, one of the best lines so far……..”You can’t get from no to yes without a maybe,” from Francis Underwood.
So, to keep me from watching the entire season in one setting, I thought a slice of Spiced Couscous Galette would keep me distracted. I found this recipe on Food and Wine and was instantly intrigued. Not only does it take less than 20 minutes to make, the whole dish is made in one skillet. Yep! Just combine the couscous with egg, cheese, and my favorite spices: chili powder, paprika, garlic powder, and cumin. Spread everything into an even layer in the skillet and boom! A sassy, spicy galette.
Totally POTUS approved.
“In conclusion, our Spiced Couscous Galette with Queso Fresco is a culinary triumph. The savory blend of spiced couscous and creamy queso fresco creates a harmonious finale worth savoring. Delight in every bite!”
I have been putting off starting the new season because I know I am going to get totally sucked in! This galette is so so pretty and couscous is mega creative. You are so cool!
MWAH!! Thanks, love! Have a wonderful weekend!
I would never think to make a galette from couscous! And that’s why I have you…this looks so good!
Thanks, Katrina! It’s super easy and a must-make for sure! Have a great weekend!
So easy, so good, wish I had some now. Have a great weekend!
Thanks, matt! Have a smashing weekend, too!
We just finished House of Cards last night!! Loved the ending….that’s all I’ll say. Not sure how I can wait a whole freaking year to watch it again..I’m going to forget what even happened by then…Anyhoo couscous galette. Love it. Eating couscous makes me feel fancy for some reason, don’t know why, but it does and I like it that way!
OH GOODNESS!! I am dying to know what happens. Until then lets eat this galette!
What a delicious & unique recipe! I never have seen a cous cous galette before. How delicious!
Thanks, Thalia! It’s definitely a new fav!
I’m only on the third episode of House of Cards for this season…it is so addictive! I find with that show it is kind of boring and plodding along, and then BAM! All of a sudden it all comes together. Love that! And I love the looks of this galette, so creative!
Totally agree. This season has definitely filled with a lot of BAMS! Hope you are having a wonderful weekend!
HOC is on my list of must watches and I haven’t had the chance to start it yet!! Can’t wait!!
I’m almost finished season one. I’m obsessed! I’m also obsessed with Scandal. I binge watched 3 seasons in one week. It wasn’t pretty. This crispy couscous looks dreamy–perfect for snacking while televising.
I’ve heard definite mixed reviews about House of Cards this season (we haven’t watched yet!!), but I’m glad to hear that you liked it! As soon as we’re done with Scandal…it’s happening! I have to say, I have never seen couscous made like this! I like. A lot.
