We love visiting Shanna's house--the kids get to play with their pals Maz and Ava, and I get to witness Shanna's gifted hostess abilities. She can serve a kitchen full of people an impromptu meal and make it look easy! Maybe she should try opening up a restaurant... Oh, wait, she already did that. One particularly delicious dinner was a combination of leftovers from the night before, and it was so good that I have recreated it a few times since.
It is a blend of couscous, orzo, fava beans, salmon, fresh basil and tomatoes... yum!

1/2 pkg Trader Joe's Steamed Six Bean Medley or Fava Beans (refrigerator section)

Cook 1/2 pkg of harvest Grains blend according to instructions, substituting water with chicken broth.
