Couscous Poppers

Ingredients

• 2 cups water
• 10 ounces uncooked couscous (You can use plain couscous or boxed couscous that comes with a flavor packet that you like.)
• 3 large eggs
• 1 cup breadcrumbs (I used panko, but any breadcrumbs would work.)
• spices, to taste
• 1 3/4 cup shredded cheese (Use any kind you like.)

Directions

1. In a small saucepan on high heat, bring water to a boil.
2. Stir in couscous.
3. Immediately remove from heat. Cover and let sit for five minutes.
4. Remove cover, fluff couscous with a fork and set aside to cool.
5. Preheat oven to 350 F.
6. Once couscous is cool, mix in eggs, 1/2 cup of the breadcrumbs, spices, and cheese.
7. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a Silpat.
8. Roll couscous mixture into balls.
9. Roll the balls in the remaining half cup of breadcrumbs. It won't seem like they are very solidified. That's OK. The balls will get a crunchy protective layer when they bake.
10. Bake for thirty minutes or until the balls are lightly browned on the outside.
11. Serve warm.
