Spanakopita Couscous


I still can't wrap my brain around Pinterest.  It's too much for me - image overload, too many ideas, too many GOOD ideas.  I was perfectly content before realizing the Internet is more creative than I am.  That said, I do "pin things" from time to time and I do come across some ideas I can't pass up - like this Quinoa Spanakopita I saw the other day.  However, the recipe seemed a little complex for the pea-sized brain I'm sporting these days.  So I came up with my own, simpler version using ready-in-5-minutes couscous instead.  And it was delicious.  Take that Creative Internet People!    

Saute about 1/4 cup chopped white onion and 1 clove of minced garlic in a little olive oil until slightly caramelized...   


Toast about 1/4 cup of pine nuts until golden brown...


Add 1 pkg. of thawed, chopped, frozen spinach to onions.  Sprinkle with paprika, dried oregano, salt and pepper.  Saute until spinach is warmed through...


Make couscous from a box.  Add spinach mixture, pine nuts and crumbled feta.  
Flake with fork and serve...
