A bright, Mediterranean lunch box.
Equipment: Lidded box
Measures and names
Ingredients
- 100 g feta, cubed
- ½ × 400g tin chickpeas, drained
- ½ cucumber, chopped
- Handful of cherry tomatoes, halved
- ¼ red onion, sliced
- Small handful of olives
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp dried oregano
Method
- Combine the cucumber, tomatoes, onion and olives in a lidded box.
- Add the chickpeas and feta.
- Drizzle with the oil, sprinkle with oregano, and season with pepper.
- Seal and chill until lunchtime. Taste before adding salt — feta already seasons the dish.
Swaps and tips
Half a tin of chickpeas keeps the carbs sensible while adding bulk. Swap in cooked chicken for extra protein if you like.
