That's what I like about couscous. OK, I know it's not pasta,

Actually, I believe it counts as pasta, being more like semolina than
anything else.

but if
you eat it with a mountain of mixed fresh veg with a little stock
poured over, it doesn't need any sort of rich or fatty sauce with it.

Indeed no! And lots and lots of harissa..... I never know quite what to
do for protein, though, as if I just have couscous & veg, I get hungry.
I suppose a little grilled or poached chicken?

I do like pasta with just veggies, too, though.

Me too, but I tend to sprinkle grated cheese on top.
