Cook the couscous per instructions & set aside.
While the carrots & butternut squash are roasting, chop up the rest of the veggies: more carrots, cucumbers, avocado, spring onions & parsley. Add them to a large salad bowl.
Once the roasted veggies have come out of the oven & have had the chance to cool for approx. 5 minutes, toss them into the bowl too.
Next add the feta & couscous + a drizzle of olive oil, splash of apple cider vinegar & a squeeze of lemon juice. Season all with salt & pepper to taste and serve.
