Couscous is a good source of dietary protein and our body relies on dietary protein  to support healthy skin, muscles, organs and other body tissues. Peas are low fat but high in protein, fiber and micronutrients. Cauliflower is a member of the cruciferous family of vegetables, believed to fight cancer because of the sulfur-containing compound present in it.
