Another Nearly Followed Recipe!

This recipe was called squash, chicken and couscous one-pot, and I nearly followed it. Inevitably there were changes I made because I didn't have the required ingredients, and also changes I made just because I could. I started with red onions, chipotle paste (should have been harissa), cumin and coriander and fried these until soft, then added a pack of chicken style quorn pieces (recipe said chicken breast). At this point the chipotle paste gave off a fantastic smokey smell which filled the house. Next I added two tins of tomatoes and a heap of cubed butternut squash. I left the pan on a very low heat for most of the afternoon. At tea time I added four quartered tomatoes, some bacon (ready cooked) and the zest and juice of a lemon. I cooked some quinoa instead of couscous and kept it separate from the casserole. The recipe said just bung in some couscous and let it cook in the juices. The end result is very good. Perhaps next time I would add a little less lemon. The bacon was an afterthought when I found it in the fridge nearly out of date. It would definitely look better on the plate with some greens
