Moroccan Beans with Couscous and Garlic Yoghurt
This Moroccan-inspired dish is incredibly flavourful and with a bit of prep, the oven does most of the work. The Moroccan style chickpeas and cannellini beans give a boost of plant-based protein, while the garlic yoghurt brings it all together beautifully.
