About COUS COUS
A ready-made couscous dish from H.J. Heinz Foods UK, this product is prepared as instructed using durum wheat semolina couscous, water, tomatoes, zucchini, carrots, leek, and red pepper, lightly seasoned with marjoram, oregano, basil, rosemary, and olive oil. Per 100 g as prepared, it delivers 113 calories, 4 g protein, 22 g carbohydrates, and under 1 g fat -- a lean, convenient grain-based side dish. Corn starch and natural flavorings are added for consistency, and citric acid acts as a mild preservative. It provides moderate fiber at 1.5 g per 100 g.
