After much anticipation, here begins the long awaited Hubby guest post. Today, I’m the boss, and I’m taking over the Lean Green Bean. Lindsay has been asking me to contribute something for about a year now, and inspiration has struck! I’m a bit of a renaissance man. I’ve always enjoyed figuring out how things work, and spent […]

A few months ago, I made this couscous and never told you about it. THEN, this weekend I came across this recipe: and THEN, I had the brilliant idea to do a combination of sorts. So, I headed to the kitchen and got to work. Ok, that’s not really what happened. What actually happened was […]
