Kittencal's Greek Lemony Rice With Feta

This was delicious & intensely flavored as stated. First time I made exactly as stated, but the second time around I used small garlic cloves, 1/4 teas. black pepper, and a little less lemon juice. This is the perfect amount of heat & flavor for my taste.
I love to toss in some sauteed spinach at the end.
Thanks Kittencal:)

This may be my favorite rice ever! I didn't even add in the feta and olives because it tasted so good without them (and I was trying to cut out a tad bit of fat. I could live off of your recipes every meal of the day and be happy.

The only complaint my kids had was that I didn't make enough! Next time (and there will be a next time, and a next time, and a next time . . .) I will double it.

This was just perfect for what I had in mind. I served it with Greek grilled jumbo shrimp with lemon and oregano dressing.

This was wonderful with grilled lamb chops! Exactly what I was looking for. I used fat-free feta cheese to make it cholesterol free.

This was just ok for us. I used dill instead of oregano because its what I had. Didn't get a whole lot of lemon flavor out of it though.

Terrific! Flavors were delightful. I added more lemon and garlic and used the rice cooker. I added the feta after the rice was fully cooked and flipped to the warm setting. Topped the rice with olives upon serving. Thank you Kittencal, this is now a favorite of ours!

This was a very flavorfu. rice. We liked the tang the lemon juice and the salty the kalamata olives gave to the rice. I used the smaller amount of olives. Thanks Kittencal. Bullwinkle

I used brown long grain rice and did add a little more water and cooked a little longer. Loved the lemon and feta and kalamata olives! Thanks! Made for Zaar Stars game.

This is some good rice Kit! I made it to go with Chicken Scaloppine With Lemon Glaze (Low Fat and Delicious!). Great combination of flavors and they went so good together. I did add some fresh diced tomatoes for some added flavor, and used brown rice, and it was a great addition. You can bet I will be making this one again!

This is my new favorite rice recipe! My boyfriend and I both liked it, but I think I was more into it than him. I did use olive oil spray and 1 tbs oil instead of the 4 tablespoons, making it 282 calories per serving. I loved it with olives; I also added True Lemon and Cavender's Greek Seasoning before serving. Yum!!

I haven't made this exact recipe, but the one I use looks pretty much identical (no olives though). I really like it, it's different from regular rice and not really that much more difficult. My husband complained that it's too lemon-y, but I thought it was just right.

I had no olives but would of used them since I have starting liking them LOL I had to add extra broth halfway thru the rice cooking. I LOVE the addition of the feta YUM but found the rice not as flavourful as I thought it would be. Next time I will add more lemon and oregano and garlic. Made for Prop It Up Tag feb 2009
