COUSCOUS WITH FETA, CHICKPEAS AND TOMATO
This is one of my vegetarian sister's favorite salads, from Mom (I'm not sure where she got it). She just eats it as is, but it is also good with grilled chicken, for the non-vegetarian set. A simple, tasty, one-pot dish, excellent hot or cold.

Steps:
- Heat olive oil in a medium saucepan or large skillet over medium heat.
- Add red pepper and garlic and cook for three minutes, stirring frequently.
- Stir in a half a cup of the broth, along with the dried oregano or basil and chickpeas. Turn heat up to boil the mixture, then lower heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
- Add remaining 1 and 3/4 cups of broth and salt, then bring to the boil. Add tomatoes. Gradually stir in couscous, then remove from heat, cover, and let stand 5 minutes until couscous cooks.
- Stir in green onions and feta, toss well, and serve. May add some cracked black pepper, if you like.
- Great next-day leftovers!

SHEET-PAN FETA WITH CHICKPEAS AND TOMATOES
In a spread of Greek appetizers, or meze, there's often a warm feta dish like bouyiourdi (baked feta with tomato and hot peppers) or a saganaki (fried cheese). This recipe combines elements of these two classic appetizers into a sheet-pan meal. Softened feta provides a salty, creamy counterpoint to sweet, juicy tomatoes and chickpeas that are sticky from honey and spicy from dried chile. Try this version, then riff wildly: Switch out tomatoes for mini peppers, olives, dates or cauliflower. Swap the hot honey for anchovies, harissa, smoked paprika or turmeric. Eat with pita, grains, salad greens, hummus or yogurt.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 400 degrees. On a baking sheet, stir together the chickpeas, tomatoes, shallot, olive oil, honey and chile flakes. Season with salt, then spread in an even layer. Arrange the feta among the chickpeas. Roast until the feta and tomatoes are soft and the chickpeas are golden brown, 30 to 35 minutes (no need to stir). Eat right away. (The feta will harden as it cools; reheat leftovers.)
