Whole Wheat Vegan Couscous Salad

Bring water to a boil in a saucepan; remove from heat and stir in couscous. Cover saucepan and let stand until water is absorbed completely, about 10 minutes. Fluff couscous with a fork.

Mix red onion, carrot, celery, cranberries, green onions, alfalfa sprouts, parsley, and walnuts into the couscous.

Stir olive oil, apple cider vinegar, basil, and lemon juice together in a bowl. Pour over the couscous mixture. Stir in salt and black pepper.
