Instructions
Cook couscous according to package directions, and set aside.
Meanwhile, melt 1 Tb butter in a large pan over medium heat.
Add zucchini and cook until tender and crisp. This took around 3 minutes for me.
Add Rotel and black beans. Stir, and cook until warmed through.
Stir in cooked couscous and heat through. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Sprinkle Parmesan cheese on top. Remove from heat and let cheese melt.
Notes
This is best served warm! Store leftovers in the fridge.
