Instructions

In a large bowl, roughly smash about half of the chickpeas using a potato masher or fork. Leave the other half whole.
Add the celery, red onion, cucumber, feta, fresh herbs, capers and garlic cloves. Toss to combine.
In a small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, olive oil, oregano, salt and pepper.
Pour the dressing over the chickpea mixture and toss gently to coat everything evenly.
Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes to allow flavors to blend. Give it another gentle toss before serving chilled or at room temperature.
