Ingredients

Directions

  1. Bring 3/4 cup of water to a rolling boil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat.
  2. Stir in the couscous, dark brown sugar, and cinnamon until the sugar begins to dissolve.
  3. Remove the saucepan from the heat immediately.
  4. Gently stir in the plain nonfat yogurt until fully incorporated and creamy.
  5. Cover the pan with a lid or plate and let it stand for 5 minutes to allow the couscous to absorb the water.

  7. Divide the mixture evenly among four bowls and serve warm.
