Directions:
Heat the oil in a large skillet on medium high heat.
Add the zucchini, onion, carrot and garlic.

(For a time-saver, use the matchstick carrots from the produce department) Stir in the broth, and the next 9 ingredients, and bring to a boil.
Cover, reduce the heat, and simmer for 8 minutes or until tender.
Stir occasionally.
While the stew simmers, bring the 1 1/2 cups water to a boil, stir in couscous, and remove from heat.
