Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Pulse the carrots, celery and shallots in a food processor until coarsely chopped.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium high. Add the chopped vegetables and cook, stirring frequently, until light golden and soft, 8 to 10 minutes. (Add a splash of water if the mixture begins to stick.) Add the ground beef and 4 teaspoons of the tomato paste and cook, breaking the mixture up with a wooden spoon, until browned, about 4 minutes. Add 1/2 cup water, the parsley, raisins, 1 tablespoon of the vinegar and 3/4 teaspoon salt. Bring to a simmer and cook until most of the water is absorbed and the mixture gets saucy, about 1 minute. Let cool slightly.
- Meanwhile, toss the pepper halves with the remaining 1/2 tablespoon oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave until the peppers are pliable, 10 to 12 minutes. Carefully uncover the bowl and pour out any liquid that has accumulated.
- Stir the couscous into the beef mixture. Whisk together the remaining 2 tablespoons tomato paste, 1 tablespoon vinegar and 3/4 cup water in the bottom of a large baking dish.
- Carefully transfer the peppers to the baking dish cut-side up and fill each pepper with the couscous mixture. Sprinkle with the cheese. Cover with foil and bake until the peppers are tender and the stuffing is hot, 20 to 25 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature drizzled with the tomato cooking liquid.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spread almonds in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet; toast in the oven until light brown and fragrant, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes. Remove from oven; let cool.
- Place a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the couscous, stirring occasionally until deep golden brown and fragrant, 3 to 4 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low; add 1 3/4 cups water or stock all at once. Cover, and let grains steam until tender, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat; keep covered.
- In a medium skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic; saute until soft, about 4 minutes. Stir in spice mixture, apricots, and the remaining 1/2 cup water or stock. Reduce heat to a simmer; continue cooking until most of the liquid has evaporated, about 3 minutes. Stir in olives and toasted almonds; remove from heat.
- Fluff couscous with a fork, and add onion mixture. Season with salt and pepper. Add julienned arugula, and drizzle with remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons oil; toss well to combine. Transfer to a serving bowl. Serve warm or at room temperature, garnished with arugula leaves.
CRUNCHY SWEET AND SOUR SALAD
This is an absolutely wonderful salad for a dinner party - it is very aesthetically pleasing to look at (all green with brown crunchies) and you also make your own delicious, sweet and sour salad dressing to go with it. Please note: the dressing is included in the recipe list and it makes approx. 1-1/4 cup - the amount you will need for the salad. This recipe was adapted from a Junior League cookbook from Jackson, MS.
