1
First, prepare the couscous. Bring the dried couscous to a boil in the water. Cover, reduce heat and cook for about 5 minutes and then fluff with a fork. The couscous will look plump and chewy. Set aside.
2
Next, make the dressing. Drain the juice off the mandarin oranges into a mixing bowl. Add the lemon juice and olive oil to the orange juice and whisk together. Set aside.
3
In a large salad bowl, toss together the couscous, mandarin oranges, almond slivers, mache, red onions, and white beans.
4
Pour the orange juice dressing over top and mix well. Add salt and pepper to taste. Chill and serve.

This couscous salad is truly one of my favorites. The red onion balances out the sweetness of the mandarin oranges, the beans add bulk, and the almonds and mache give it great crunch.

Hope you enjoy it!
