Lorri's Mediterranean Couscous

2 tsp butter

3 medium green onions, chopped (about 1/3 cup)

1 clove garlic, finely chopped

1 1/2 cups water (or chicken broth)

1/2 tsp chicken bouillon (not super necessary if you use broth)

1 cup uncooked couscous

1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

1 tbsp chopped basil (or 1/2 tsp dried)

1/4 tsp black pepper

1 medium chopped yellow summer squash (about 1 cup)

1 medium tomato, chopped (3/4 cup)

Melt butter in 2 quart saucepan. Add onions and garlic and cook until onions are tender. Stir in water and bouillon. Heat to boiling. Add squash and remove from heat after it comes back up to boiling.

Stir in remaining ingredients. Cover and let stand about 5 minutes - everything cooks trust me! Fluff lightly with a fork.
