GREEK RICE - RICE WITH SPINACH AND FETA
This recipe for a delicious and easy rice side dish came from Michael at Gail's Recipe Swap, and I've fiddled with it a little. Although I don't get to eat rice often, this one looks so tasty I have to put it here for safe keeping when I get to splurge! :)

KITTENCAL'S GREEK LEMONY RICE WITH FETA
Make this only if you are a lover of Greek food, this is a full flavored rice with intense flavor and not for those with a plain palette! --- since not everyone has a taste for olives I have left them as optional, I most always add them in -- after making this a few times you will most likely want to adjust some of the ingredients to suit your taste, or you may not, the amounts listed are close to what I use when I make this rice --- this is very good!
