North African-Inspired Falafel and Green Couscous from HelloFresh Canada

I am "testing" to see if doing an individual post for each HelloFresh be better than doing one post for all the meals for the week.

Happy Saturday! My day started at 7:00 AM with cleaning the bathroom. Then, I took a 30-minute break before ironing a couple of our shirts for Sunday Mass. Afterwards, we reheated for 30 seconds the hopia we received from my parents, which I happily enjoyed with tea for breakfast.

At 10:47 AM, our HelloFresh box arrived! I looked at the recipe card and opted to cook the meal that took the longest, which happens to be the "North African-Inspired Falafel and Green Couscous with Blistered Veggies and Creamy Harissa Sauce." Hubby and I prepared it for lunch.

The couscous was smooth and buttery. There is a nice mix of hearty vegetables, which gives the dish varying textures. However, the real winner of the dish is the falafel and harissa sauce. I'll happily eat those two in a wrap or on top of a salad. Yum!

After lunch, we prepared to leave our home for Richmond, BC, where my parents and two siblings live. We had a delicious food coma dinner c/o of my dad. I am blessed to have wonderful parents who love to feed us. Thank God!
