Cinnamon Couscous Cereal

Tired of the same oatmeal routine? Couscous makes a surprisingly good hot breakfast cereal.

Boil water, stir in couscous with a spoonful of dark brown sugar and cinnamon, then fold in yogurt and let it sit for five minutes. That’s it.

The couscous fluffs up light and fluffy with a subtle sweetness, and the yogurt adds a creamy tang that pairs naturally with the warm cinnamon.

It serves four, so the whole family eats for the effort of boiling a pot of water.

Variations

• Top with sliced banana, berries, or chopped nuts for extra texture and nutrition.
• Swap dark brown sugar for maple syrup or honey drizzled on after fluffing.
• Use flavored yogurt instead of plain for a sweeter bowl without adding more sugar.
