Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

  2. Toss cranberries with 2 teaspoons olive oil, sugar, and thyme in a bowl. Pour onto a baking sheet.

  3. Arrange butternut squash into a single layer on a separate baking sheet. Coat evenly with 1/4 teaspoon salt and pepper.

  4. Bake cranberries and squash in the preheated oven until cranberries are softened and lightly browned and squash is tender, 15 to 20 minutes.

  5. Bring water to a boil in a saucepan, add 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Remove from heat and stir in couscous. Cover saucepan and let stand until water is absorbed completely, about 5 minutes. Fluff couscous with a fork, let cool for 10 minutes more.
