- Choose ripe, firm tomatoes.: Using ripe yet firm tomatoes will make them easier to stuff and prevent them from becoming too mushy during baking.
- Fluff the couscous.: After cooking the couscous, use a fork to fluff it up. This will help keep the couscous light and airy, making it perfect for stuffing.
- Toast the almonds.: To bring out their full flavor, lightly toast the almonds in a dry pan over medium heat before adding them to the couscous mixture.
- Herb substitution.: Feel free to substitute or add other fresh herbs like dill, mint, or cilantro to suit your preference.
- Use vegetable broth for a vegetarian option.: Replace chicken gravy with vegetable broth to make the dish suitable for vegetarians.
