Method
step 1
In a large bowl or sealable container, whisk the lemon zest and juice, oil, honey, tahini and some seasoning. Squeeze the grain pouch to separate the grains, then tip into the bowl along with the chickpeas, pomegranate seeds, tomatoes, herbs, almonds, spring onions and half the feta.
step 2
Toss everything together in the bowl to coat in the dressing, then crumble over the remaining feta. Serve in bowls straight away, or cover the container and put in the fridge. Eat within 3 days.
