Preheat the oven to 400 F

To a baking dish, add the cherry tomatoes, chopped onion and spices and toss with the olive oil. Place the block of feta in the center of the pan and drizzle with a little extra olive oil

Bake for 35-45 minutes, until the tomatoes have softened. Once soft, mash together with the feta cheese to create the sauce

While that bakes, prepare the pearl couscous by combining the couscous, water and pinch of salt to a pot. Cover with a lid and bring it to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and simmer for 15-18 minutes until all of the water is absorbed

Mix the cooked couscous with the tomato feta sauce and add in the chickpeas and chopped parsley
