About Spanakorizo

Spanakorizo is a traditional Greek dish that combines spinach, rice, olive oil, and fresh herbs like dill and parsley, resulting in a simple yet nutritious one-pot meal. Often served with a squeeze of lemon juice, the dish can be prepared vegetarian or enhanced with feta cheese for added flavor. Rich in vitamins A, C, and K thanks to the spinach, Spanakorizo also provides fiber and antioxidants. Olive oil contributes heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, while rice offers a source of carbohydrates for energy. Brown rice can be used as a healthier alternative to white rice for increased fiber content. This dish is low in cholesterol, making it suitable for most diets, although its calorie count may rise if made with excessive oil or cheese. Spanakorizo embodies the Mediterranean diet’s emphasis on fresh, plant-based ingredients and is celebrated for its health benefits and comforting flavors.
