This delicious Greek chickpea recipe with spinach epitomizes the simple way that healthy, plant-based Mediterranean ingredients come together in the Greek and Mediterranean diet. Chickpeas are one of the oldest cultivated legumes in the Eastern Mediterranean and Greeks have been enjoying them for eons. You can easily swap out the spinach for something more exotic, like chard or sorrel. By adding lemon juice to this dish, you’re actually helping your body absorb the iron in the greens more easily. This is an easy and wonderful way to treat yourself to a Mediterranean vegetarian and/or Mediterranean vegan meal that’s quick to make and enjoyable to eat. Try serving it with Greek feta if you want to add a little extra tang to this lemony casserole.
