In a medium saucepan over medium-high, heat one tablespoon olive oil and add couscous. Stir until the couscous begins to color and smell toasty, 4-5 minutes. Add 2 cups water and salt to taste and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer 15 minutes, or until the couscous is tender. Drain if any liquid remains in the pan.
Transfer the couscous to a large bowl and toss with the lemon juice, parsley, mint, tomatoes, cucumbers, green onions. Add remaining olive oil, toss together, taste and adjust seasonings. Serve with lettuce leaves. Makes 6 servings.
