This is such an easy and refreshing summer dinner (or side dish for a summer picnic), and you can swap out the ingredients to create endless options, depending on what you like or what's available at your local farmer's market.

Ingredients
2 cups Israeli pearl couscous
3 fresh peaches (sliced in cubes)
3 cups fresh baby spinach
2 1/2 cups vegetable stock
1 Tbsp. vegetable oil
1 Tbsp. lavender buds
3-4 fresh sage leaves (finely chopped)
Sea salt to taste

Instructions
Add vegetable oil to large saute pan, and cook spinach until slightly tender.

In a medium saucepan, bring vegetable stock to a boil. Add couscous, reduce heat to simmer, and cook until soft. Add peaches, spinach, lavender, sage, and sea salt. Stir thoroughly and cook for another minute. Serve hot or cold.

Enjoy! (Pairs well with a crisp white wine.)
