Day 2 of our 5 Days of Muscle Food Recipes is here and this time we decided to try out the Moroccan Meatball and Couscous recipe which was written by Paige Modeste who is a fitness blogger. We love meatballs and couscous and eat them quite often but usually not together, so I was looking forward to testing out this simple recipe to see what we thought. You’ll have to watch the video to find out!!
If you like the look of this recipe and fancy trying it out for yourself you’ll find the full recipe below the video. Plus to give you a little more of an incentive I have an exclusive Muscle Food discount code for my readers. Use the code LEAN10 to get 10% off all orders over £35.
