Great! Easy meal preparation, have now revisited for a second time. A favourite especially when the cupboard is bare.

Good but I did drain chickpeas and tomatoes and left out that marinara. Also topped it with chicken.

So good! I only had the marinara and trisciits on hand tonight and am still enjoying this dish!

Absolutely delicious, the lemon lends a lovely acidity and I would not have used any less. It is quite soupy and I regret not having bread on-hand.

Very tasty. I didn't think I would like the spinach but it melded very well. Would make again.

This is a good, quick vegetarian meal. My husband doesn't like chickpeas so I used tofu instead. I also added onion, mushrooms, 1 teaspoon oregano, 1/2 teaspoon rosemary, 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg, a bay leaf & a splash of red wine. I used mozzarella & parmesan cheese insstead of feta. It was a bit soupy so I served it over cauliflower rice. Will definitely make this again.

Super tasty! Glad I read reviews - I added mushrooms and used grape tomatoes instead of the canned whole tomatoes. Paired with a crisp sourdough.

delicious! after reading the reviews, i skipped the lemon and halved the salt. it does come out pretty soupy but a side of sourdough pulls it all together.

The feta is pretty salty so if I make it again I would probably reduce the salt by a little, but otherwise this was so good! I am a huge fan of tomato based recipes and this was very flavorful and delicious. I used a large can of tomatoes as well bc that is what I had and it stretched it a bit so that it was plenty for the whole family.

It was a really good base for what I turned this into. I wanted something more hearty so added squash mushrooms onions and diced peppers to the sauté portion and added the remaining ingredients as directed. I drained the tomato’s and chickpeas prior to adding. And added a couple tablespoons of sugar to the sauce to offset the lemon. With a side of warm, buttered everything French bread it was great and filling!

Simple and very flavorful, and especially good with a slice of toasted sourdough.

Quick and easy to make. I doubled the spinach and used a pint of grape tomatoes instead of the canned tomatoes. Will make again.

Paul 3 months ago
It was great and a nice alternative to the usual meals we have. I’d scale back on the lemon a bit but a good solid meal and a nice addition to our repitoire.

Greenway 3 months ago
I loved this easy, fresh & lemony dish. I will definitely be making again. Hearty & tasty but oh so quick & simple.

Matt B 3 months ago
Not my favorite. I followed the recipe as instructed but I took the notes in the comments about leaving out the lemon and going easy on the diced tomatoes. I just don't think the tomato/marinara helps the dish very much.

Beck 4 months ago
Delish, I didn’t add any marinara sauce as I didn’t have but I didn’t need the extra sauce.

Delicious, forgiving recipe! Substituted Great Northern White Beans - tasted yummy. Made 5 generous servings. Next time - I'll try with Chickpeas, and likely less salt (I think the feta was a bit on the salty side). Easy to make, fast and ohh so yummy. Definitely want to have bread to sop up any remaining sauce!

Almost everyone had seconds served over pasta. Even those who only had one bowl scraped it clean.
Will be making again.

amazing flavor but a little heavy on the lemon! Next time I’ll be using about half of the lemon juice
