In a saucepan over medium-high heat, bring the orange juice and water to a
boil. Stir in the couscous and oil. Remove from the heat. Cover, let stand
for 30 minutes. In a large bowl, toss the couscous with the oranges, kiwi
fruit, lime juice, mint and pine nuts. Serve immediately or chill until

NOTE: I prefer this well chilled. If I don't have pine nuts, I substitute
walnuts or pecans.
