Mix salad dressing. Set aside
Mix couscous and rest of ingredients. Top with 1/2 to 3/4 salad dressing and mix again. Adjust dressing as needed.
Chill and serve. You can top with remaining dressing right before serving if you think it needs a bit more.
I've also used cucumbers, tomatoes and fresh baby spinach in this with great results.
