Instructions

In a medium bowl, lightly mash about half of the rinsed and drained chickpeas with a fork or potato masher. Leave the rest whole for texture.

Add the crumbled feta cheese, finely chopped red onion, chopped fresh mint, and chopped fresh parsley to the bowl.

Drizzle with lemon juice and extra virgin olive oil.

Sprinkle in the cumin, coriander, salt, and black pepper.

Gently stir all the ingredients together until well combined. Be careful not to overmix, as you want to maintain some texture from the chickpeas and feta.

Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.

Serve immediately as a flavorful and protein-rich snack.
