  1. Pour the vegetable broth into a small pot and bring to the boil over a medium high heat. Add the couscous, stir through and remove the pot from the heat. Cover the pot with a lid and set aside for 5 minutes to allow the couscous to absorb all the broth. After 5 minutes, fluff the couscous with a fork and set aside. 
  2. Make the dressing by placing all the dressing ingredients together in a bowl and whisking until well combined. Set aside until needed. 
  3. Place the beans, couscous, avocados, grapefruit, feta, mint, and cilantro into a large bowl. Pour over the salad dressing and toss gently. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
