    \"\"How to Make It:<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Zest half the lemon into a large bowl and half into smaller one. Slice the lemon in half and juice half into each bowl.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
    2. To the smaller bowl: add the feta, pesto, 2 tablespoons of the basil, and several grinds pepper. Smash with a fork until fully combined and spreadable.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
    3. To the larger bowl: add the oil, garlic, a generous pinch of salt, and several grinds pepper and whisk to combine. Add the chickpeas, tomatoes, onion, and remaining 4 tablespoons basil. Season with salt until it tastes really vibrant and flavorful.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
    4. Toast the naan in a toaster, skillet, or under the broiler. Divide the feta mixture between them, followed by the chickpea salad. Finish with a drizzle of balsamic glaze.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
    5. Enjoy any leftover salad over greens, in a pita pocket, as a side dish, etc.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
