Spinach and Feta Couscous Salad

This is the couscous salad I made the other day. I made it about an hour before we had dinner it was good but it was much better the next day. The asparagus poached in wine was not something I'll do again. Steamed in water with lemon slices and a little herb d' Provence sprinkled in taste much better. I could see this dish being a entree but I would add calmata olives, cucumbers and more (2-3 oz.) feta.
