Roasted Veg Israeli Couscous with a Poached Egg

Today I have an author visit at school, this is something that I organise and sort out, the run up to this one has not been smooth even less so as I managed to schedule it for the day after a bank holiday! But in a couple of hours it will all be over and I will be able to enjoy the sunshine for a little bit! It really is beautiful out there today.

Last Monday I went to a new zumba class last week in Westminster after work and I knew that I would be back much later than normal so I wanted something quick for dinner. This turned out to be a dinner of kings. I made the couscous and roasted veg mix the day before and just reheated it in a pan as the egg was poaching, sprinkled over the cheese and I was good to go. It was delicious and just what I needed after a hard work out!
