Summer Cauliflower Couscous

Cauliflower is the new kale.  It's everywhere.  I draw the line at pizza crust. 
You can make cauliflower couscous by cutting a cauliflower into florets and then pulsing in a food processor, or simply chopping the florets pretty fine.   I cheated and bought a bag of pre-cut  cauliflower couscous from Trader Joe's

3 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
2 cups cauliflower couscous
zest of 1 lemon
1 peach, sliced
1 apricot, sliced
1 Persian cucumber, diced
2 green onions, chopped
small handful of either mint, cilantro or basil, chopped
handful of shelled pistachios
handful of feta (optional)
handful of broccoli or kale sprouts (optional)

Heat a large pan over medium heat.  Add the olive oil, then spices, then cauliflower.  Stir to combine.  Cook for a couple of minutes until cauliflower begins to soften a little.  Remove from the heat and transfer to a large bowl to cool. 

Once the cauliflower has cooled, add the remaining ingredients, stir to combine.  Garnish with feta and sprouts, if desired.
