- ¼ cup shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese (1 ounce)
- 8 lime- or cheddar-flavor tortilla chips, such as food should taste good® brand
- 2 tablespoons light sour cream

Saffron scented Vegetable Couscous with North African spiced Halibut
This dish has a lovely combination of flavors -- saffron couscous is combined with cauliflower and fennel; bright herbs and olives; warmly-spiced fish; and a splash of tart lemon juice. The fish marinade riffs on couscous' North African origins, using some of the ingredients often found in the Ras Al Hanout spice blend, along with garlic and lemon in an oil-based paste. The savory-sweet combination compliments the slightly fusty edge in the couscous from the saffron and fennel. Don't be put off by the long list of ingredients -- it'll just take a few minutes to rifle through your spice cabinet. There are admittedly a few steps, but the result transforms some common ingredients into an exciting dish.
