I love this dish, it is so healthy and comforty! In Greece we have it as a main course, but it is also a good side dish to fish, chicken or meatballs.
Ingredients
- 1kgr spinach (fresh or frozen)
- 1 1/2 cup rice (carolina, arborio or carnaroli)

Instructions
- Put the olive oil in a pan or pot and add the onions.
- Stir until you get a nice color of the onions then add the rice and stir for another 10-15 seconds.
- Add the spinach, now it will release its’ juices but add another cup of water.
- Season with salt/pepper, add the dill and the lemon juice.
