This light and healthy couscous salad makes a delicious summer days lunch.
- Heat a barbecue hot plate to medium heat. Place half the oil in a bowl, add the beetroot and toss to coat evenly. Place the remaining oil in a separate bowl, add the zucchini and sweet potato and toss to coat evenly. Place the beetroot on the hot plate and cook for 5-6 minutes, turning regularly. Add the sweet potato and zucchini, and cook for a further 6-8 minutes or until softened.
- Meanwhile, cook the couscous according to packet instructions. Set aside. Mash the chickpeas with a potato masher until smooth. Stir through the mayonnaise, lemon juice and 1 tablespoon warm water.
- Toss the grilled vegetables and baby spinach through the couscous. Top with pistachios and serve immediately, or refrigerate, along with the chickpea mixture, until needed.
