17 Reviews of Greek Rice - Rice With Spinach and Feta

From: Sonia #2

On Nov 10, 2006

This was the best rice I ever did. It was so tasty. I made it in the morning so that the flavor can blend together by dinner. Dont assume that 6 cups of spinach will be too much. I made that mistake and only put half. In the end, I had to put more when I realized that spinaches really shrink a lot!

    Easy, quick & very tasty! I prepped everything in advance, popped the rice into the microwave, and it was ready at the same time as the skillet ingredients. The only change I made was to add a little salt, and to squeeze a bit more lemon over the finished rice. I used red onion, dried oregano & Danish fetta which is quite creamy, has a lovely mild flavour, and isn't overly salty. Will make again! Additional note: As mentioned by Chef #289121, this tastes great the next day. It also makes a hearty rice salad garlic-lovers should enjoy.

    i made this rice for me and my partner a few weeks ago. A total HIT. Tonight the kids were over for my B-Day - yeah, I even do the cooking for such an occasion! It was totally smurffed up - no leftovers, much to my chagrin.

    This is a very hearty rice dish. Wonderful flavor. I thought that the cheese was overpowering when I first tried it. I would make sure the cheese is crumbled more finely next time. It actually tasted better the next day! All of the flavors had a chance to blend together. I would definitely make this again. Maybe even ahead of time to give the flavors a chance to blend together.

    This was a little bland when first cooked, but the flavour definitely improved with a couple of days in the fridge.

    Loved it! I used brown rice - I think the nutty flavour of the rice complements the dish very well. Also, I substituted 1.5 tbsp white vinegar for lemon juice (ran out) and a dash of lemon pepper seasoning. Definitely agree that it gets better with time. Thanks for sharing!
