    This is great. Even though another time I may reduce the balsamic vinegar (and used only 2 tbs of it, and 1/2 tbs of olive oil). used sliced almonds instead of pine nuts. used 1 cup of carrot cause I didn't have cucumber and green onion. But I'll have to try with cucumber and green onion. used low sodium chicken stock. I like this couscous with the cherries (but DH didn't like). Thanks Chef Kate. Made for Holiday tag
