Salad Of Chickpeas And Feta

Add a thick block of creamy feta cheese to the top of our Greek chickpea salad so that your guests can break off as much as they like to eat with their salad or crumble it before serving and incorporating it.

Feta Cheese Varieties

You can use any feta cheese you have on hand, but Danish feta is our favorite because of its creamier, smoother texture. Greek feta is typically crumbly and dry, and you probably prefer that to Danish feta.

In your neighborhood supermarkets, you can also find marinated choices, flavor-infused options, or crumbled feta. Because of how adaptable this salad is, you can use any dressing you like.

The only advice I can give is to pay attention to the ingredients in the dressing and try to stick to flavors that are similar so that the cheese you select complements the flavors in the dressing.
