1

In medium saucepan, combine all couscous ingredients except couscous. Bring to a boil. Remove from heat; stir in couscous. Cover; let stand while broiling kabobs.
2

Meanwhile, spray broiler pan with nonstick cooking spray. Thread mushrooms, zucchini, bell pepper and onion onto four 12-inch metal skewers. Place on sprayed pan.
3

In small bowl, combine oil, vinegar and garlic salt; mix well. Brush over kabobs.
4

Broil 4 to 6 inches from heat for 10 to 12 minutes or until vegetables are crisp-tender, turning once halfway through cooking. Fluff couscous with fork; serve with kabobs.

Cumin (KUH-mihn) is the dried fruit of a plant in the parsley family. Cumin is popular in Middle Eastern, Asian and Mediterranean cooking.
Baste the kabobs with 3 tablespoons of prepared vinaigrette dressing instead of the oil and vinegar mixture.
This low-fat entrée has complete protein provided by couscous and garbanzo beans, while the veggies are an excellent source of vitamins A and C.
