Snap beans, chop bell peppers, mince garlic, and slice carrots.
In a large microwave safe bowl put in oil, garlic, snap beans, chopped peppers, and carrot slices. Mix so the vegetables are coated in oil.
Microwave on high for 10 minutes or until the vegetables are crisp-tender.
Add tomato paste, chicken broth, and navy beans and mix together. Microwave for another 5 minutes.
Add couscous and let sit for five minutes until couscous absorbs moisture and pumps. (May require additional microwaving if your soup is not hot enough.)
Serve hot and top with Parmesan cheese and artisan bread.
