- 2 teaspoons Za’atar spice blend
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- fresh black pepper (to taste)

- Massage the kale with your hands for about 1 to 2 minutes, until soft.
- In 4 shallow bowls, swoosh 1/2 cup yogurt in the bottom of each.

- Scatter the chickpeas over each dish and drizzle the remaining oil, top with kale and crumbled feta
