    This made a very enjoyable meal. It is also blissfully easy to make. I was a bit mean with the oil and lemon juice, but generous with the olives.

    Absolutely delicious! I loved the combination of the zucchini and chickpeas and olives. The Feta cheese gave it this lovely creamy richness--this can easily be a vegetarian main dish.

    Lovely blend of ingredients and spices - especially the flavors of lemon, cumin and marjoram which marry so well in this. I used about 1/2 the amount of olive oil and opted out of the feta at the end, so this was as healthy as it was flavorful. i paired this with couscous for DH, as per your suggestion. 4.5* - if i was possible to rate it as such. thanks for posting this.
