Pine Nut Couscous With Feta

1 (5.6 oz) box uncooked couscous (toasted pine nut flavor or original)
2 cups frozen chopped broccoli, thawed
1 cup boiling water
1 (15 oz) can garbanzo beans, rinsed and drained
1 (4 oz) package crumbled feta cheese
Cherry tomatoes, cut in half

1) Cook couscous according to package directions. Keep warm.
2) Meanwhile, combine broccoli, water and garbanzo beans in 2-quart saucepan. Cover; cook over medium heat until heated through (4 to 5 minutes). Drain.
3) Combine cooked couscous, broccoli mixture and cheese in large bowl; toss gently. Garnish with cherry tomatoes.

Review: I used the toasted pine nut flavor couscous and omitted the cherry tomatoes (I seem to have developed an allergy). It didn't have enough flavor for me. I'd suggest adding some garlic or something, but I'm not sure what. Adding tomatoes would have given it more flavor, I'm sure.
