Greek Spinach and Rice Pie

Think of this Greek spinach pie with feta and rice as spanakopita’s easier, more laid-back cousin—no phyllo, no fuss.

Garlicky spinach, salty feta, brown rice, and dill—all baked into one satisfying, sliceable pie. Jennifer Segal

With garlicky spinach and feta, this frittata-like spinach pie has definite spanakopita vibes. Brown rice in the filling makes it a little heartier than your typical egg dish, and it’s a delicious way to use up leftover rice you may have in the fridge. If you don’t happen to have leftover rice on hand, microwave rice or store-bought frozen rice all work nicely too (Trader Joe’s frozen brown rice is a great option). Or, if you want to change things up a bit, you can swap the brown rice for white rice, wild rice, or even orzo pasta. Serve the pie for brunch, lunch, a picnic (it’s great at room temperature), or a light dinner.
