Instructions

  1. Chickpeas: Stir together all Marinated Chickpea ingredients. This can be served right away, or marinated for a few hours (up to 5 days).
  2. Whipped Feta: In a food processor, whip together all Whipped Feta ingredients (this will blend up more smoothly if the ingredients are room temperature).
  3. Serve: Spread the feta dip onto a serving plate and spoon marinated chickpeas on top. Serve with crackers, veggies, or crusty bread!

Notes

  • Storage: Leftovers can be kept in the fridge for up to 5 days. I try to keep the chickpeas and feta dip separate. Otherwise, the acid from the marinade causes the feta dip to separate. I don't recommend freezing them.
