Ingredients

• 2 cups couscous

• 8 ounces grape tomatoes, halved
• 6 ounces feta cheese, crumbled
• 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

Cook couscous according to package instructions. Put aside and allow to cool slightly.

Meanwhile, place asparagus in a steamer over 1 inch of boiling water, and cover. Cook until tender but still firm, about 2 to 6 minutes. Drain and cool.

Toss the asparagus, tomatoes, and feta with couscous. Add the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and black pepper and toss to incorporate.
