## 1: the first of the list and the first you tried from me.
## Couscou: The most loved dish of us, french people.

We could say that couscous is everything that's good about france. Diversity, family oriented dish and tasty food. it's basically a Pot-au-feu but with a north African twist and spices. Easily done with or without meat and you can also be free on which vegetables you desire. I'll however elaborate on what I, Kristen, put in mine.

This perfect dish can be stored in the fridge overnight or even the day after and is rumored to be even better in those case. So, don't be afraid of doing a whole batch of this.
