Cooking Steps
Before starting, preheat the oven to 425°F. Wash and dry all produce. Cut zucchinis in half lengthwise, then into 1/4-inch-thick half-moons. Halve tomatoes. Zest, then juice half the lemon. Cut remaining lemon into wedges. Roughly chop or tear parsley. Add tomatoes, lemon juice, half the parsley, 1/2 tsp sugar and 2 tbsp oil (dbl both for 4 ppl) to a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to combine.
Add 2/3 cup water (dbl for 4 ppl) and half the garlic salt to a medium pot. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, remove the pot from heat, then add couscous. Stir to combine, then cover and let stand until couscous is tender and liquid is absorbed, 5 min.
Meanwhile, heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then zucchini. Season with remaining garlic salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender-crisp, 4-5 min. Transfer zucchini to the large bowl with tomatoes.
Heat the same pan over medium-high. When hot, add 1 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then beef. Cook, breaking up beef into smaller pieces, until no pink remains, 4-5 min.** Carefully drain and discard excess fat. Add Shawarma Spice Blend. Cook, stirring often, until fragrant, 30 sec. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
Meanwhile, add hummus, lemon zest and 2 tbsp warm water (dbl for 4 ppl) to a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine.
Fluff couscous with a fork. Add couscous to the bowl with tomatoes and zucchini, then stir to combine. Divide couscous tabbouleh between bowls. Top with beef. Drizzle hummus over beef. Sprinkle with feta and remaining parsley. Squeeze a lemon wedge over top, if desired.
