  • It's super easy to cook & really quick (less than 5 mins) You pretty much just soak it in boiling water that is equal to the amount of cous cous you have put in and it's ready when all the water has been absorbed. You just then break it up with a fork and it's ready to go - hot or cold! For it's standard taste, just put a…

  • hey, Not sure where abouts in the world you are, but just came across an online "expert triathalon clinic" - basically ask an expert type forum thing, being run by a UK fitness magazine. It's from 1-2pm tomorrow UK time, so not sure how that fits with you timewise, but really, you can view it any time. Even if you don't…
