BUSY MOMS CRANBERRY COUSCOUS

½ Cup Dried Cranberries
2 Cups Couscous
1 Medium Onion
3-3/4 Cup Vegetable Oil
1 T Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 T Butter
Salt to Taste


Peel the onion, cut it lengthwise into 8 wedges, then slice the wedges very thinly crosswise. Heat the olive oil and butter in a large non-stick sauté pan and sauté the onion, with a little salt, until it is lightly browned.

Add the vegetable broth and the dried cranberries and bring the broth to a boil.

Lower the heat to a mere simmer, add the couscous, cover the pan, and leave it to simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and leave covered for another 2-3 minutes, then fluff up the couscous with a fork and serve.
