Instructions
Wash produce before use
1
Toast the flatbreads
Heat the oven to 400°F.
On a sheet pan, place the flatbreads side by side and brush the tops lightly with oil. Bake until starting to crisp, 5 to 6 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board. Meanwhile, start preparing the cucumber-onion mixture.
2
Make the cucumber-onion mixture
- Peel the cucumbers, if desired; cut the cucumbers into ¼-inch pieces.
- Peel and coarsely chop enough onion to measure ¾ cup [1½ cups]. Set aside ½ cup [1 cup] onion for the black-eyed peas.
In a medium bowl, stir together the cucumbers, ¼ cup [½ cup] onion, and 1 to 2 teaspoons oil; season to taste with salt and pepper.
3
Prep and cook the black-eyed peas
- Rinse the black-eyed peas.
- Juice the lemon (the juice will be divided between the black-eyed peas and the feta spread).
In a medium sauce pot over medium-high heat, warm 1 to 2 teaspoons oil until hot but not smoking. Add the remaining chopped onion, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until starting to soften, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the black-eyed peas and ¾ cup [1¼ cups] water and bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the black-eyed peas are heated through and the liquid has thickened, 4 to 6 minutes.
Working in batches if needed, stir in the spinach and cook until just wilted, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from the heat, stir in 2 teaspoons [4 tsp] lemon juice, and season to taste with salt and pepper. While the black-eyed peas are cooking, finish the flatbreads.
4
Assemble the flatbreads
- In a small bowl, stir together the creamy feta spread, 2 teaspoons [1 TBL] lemon juice, and 2 to 3 teaspoons oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper and more lemon juice, if desired.
Carefully spread half the creamy feta spread over the toasted flatbreads, adding more if desired, and leaving a ½-inch border around the edges. Top with enough cucumber-onion mixture to cover the feta spread in an even layer and sprinkle with as much Aleppo chile as you like. Cut into squares.
Serve
Transfer the flatbreads to individual plates. Serve the black-eyed peas and any remaining cucumber-onion mixture on the side.
