How to enliven couscous?

[cookookachoo]

 I love couscous, especially in a hot climate. I've tried adding herbs, mint, basil, parsely, sundried tomaties, dice plum tomatoes, toasted pine nuts, fried muschrooms etc. Is there anything I'm missing?

Here's my recipe.... I roughly chop onions, tomatoes, courgette, eggplant, put them on an oven tray, sprinkle them with olive oil and sea salt and stick this in the oven for about 20 minutes on 200 degrees celcius.
Dressing: 1/3 olive oil, 2/3 lemon juice, flat-leaf parsley or coriander, mint, anchovies (or just sea salt), black pepper and stick this in the blender.
Mix it all up including capers, olives and bob's your uncle! Variations are endless... you can add grilled chicken bits, or tuna, or prawns. Or have it as a side dish with grilled merguez?
Or you can make the couscous sweeter with grilled pumpkin, raisins, almonds, apricots, dates?Yumyumyum!!!
