So my friend Derek came down this past week to celebrate our birthdays together. And as y’all might remember, he loves to cook as well. He had found this recipe on the internet and wanted to share it with me. So this became our side dish along with his Dijon-Maple Chicken. Derek needs to come visit more often. The only thing I would add is onion. Unfortunately he doesn’t like onions so I had to adjust my recipes while he was here.

Place the tomatoes in a bowl, drizzle with lemon juice and olive oil. Then add salt and pepper. Add chickpeas, feta and basil.
Combine, add salt and pepper to taste and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes to allow the flavors continue to marry and develop.
