Great. I served it over crumbly biscuits. Kind of went aggressive with the lemon zest and I was not sorry.

My husband, who tends to raise an eyebrow when I make vegetarian recipes (understandable if you've seen some of my failed plant-based experiments) LOVED this. Both he and his 11-year-old son gave this rave reviews and I will absolutely make it again. My only changes were using slightly spicy canned tomatoes with peppers, using kale instead of spinach because it's what I had on hand, and using shredded feta from a bag instead of cubed.

Very yummy dish. I added roasted zucchini as suggested. Bit too much lemon, I think because the one I used was too big.

I had too much sauce in proportion to the filling ingredients. I'd suggest roasting an eggplant or zucchini and adding to the sauce to fill it out a bit.

Great recipe. All of the canned ingredients came in quantities double what the recipe called for, so I made a double batch and froze half. I would recommend using crushed tomatoes rather than whole tomatoes. Very easy.

It was super easy and delicious! Tweaks: I skipped the baking part and served it on a bed of quinoa. Will definitely be making this again :)

Amazing! Didn’t have a block of feta at the store so I used crumbled instead and it still came out amazing. Lemon takes it to another level and calms out the marinara flavor.

Too much acid. between all the tomatoes and the lemon juice and zest, even the bread and chickpeas and cheese didnt cut it enough for me

Easy and delicious! We served this with a side of garlic bread, and enjoyed the leftovers for days.

love how savory it is and the refreshing zing of the lemon. highly recommend having it with crispy/toasted bread

I added falafel and zucchini as suggested in the reviews. Used a bottle of passata instead of marinara, so maybe should have added onion to get the full flavour. I love the combination of feta and lemon. Very nice and filling with some pita bread.

Really great dish for vegan/vegetarian family. You could really add anything to it :)

Turned out great
A small variation in the recipe, i added a little port wine, zucchini, mushrooms and pasta
A wholesome dinner for the family
Optional additions: Can add olives aswell and replace pasta with nicely roasted garlic bread
Do let me know your thoughts
