Food in a hurry

Yesterday the last thing I wanted to do was cook. I'd have been happy with just a sandwich, but needed to make my husband a meal. Ended up by frying thinly sliced onion, some diced chicken, and tipping in a can of Tikka Masala sauce. Couldn't even be bothered to cook any rice, so instead tipped some cous-cous into a bowl, adding the juice and zest of one lemon, some flaked almonds and enough boiling water to soak. Glad I did for it made good eating.. Here are two quick and easy recipes, one using cous-cous, both using tuna..
Who Needs Lettuce?
Make up cous-cous (adding the juice and zest of a lemon) with boiling water, When soaked, (put into a sieve and press out excess liquid), Put cous-cous into a bowl with a little French dressing and some drained canned chickpeas and/or red beans and mix well. OR instead of the pulses, add flaked almonds and some sultanas. Stir in flaked tuna and serve with slices of cucumber and tomato. With cous-cous there is always room to experiment with flavours.
