Quick semi-homemade dinner idea!

We all have those days where you are either too busy to think about dinner or you just really don't want to. After so many nights of planning, shopping, preparing and cooking, I just get burnt out!  This is a great recipe to use up leftover chicken, especially if you have a rotisserie on hand. First I get this brand and flavor of couscous. 
I sautée up a pound of mushrooms and an onion. 
As you are sautéing the mushrooms and onions follow the directions on the cous cous package. Then I throw in a handful of cranberries and a handful of chopped pecans. Dice up some chicken, I probably had about 1.5 cups, but you can use as much or as little as you like, and throw all of that in with your vegetables. 
Once your couscous is finished just mix it all together and serve!
It tastes like thanksgiving dinner to us!  It is one of my favorite quick meals!
