Spinach, rice and feta pie

[Connie]

I forget about the archives, but after reading a post where they were mentioned, I read them for awhile. I saw a post about the spinach, rice and feta pie from Sept 96. If someone is still looking for the recipe, let me know. I've made it several times; we really like it!

Sis!!
Have you ever shared it with me? Seems like you would have - or maybe should have! http://www.cookinglight.com/bbs/smile.gif I would love the recipe. And maybe I could make it with my swiss chard! Sounds yummy. Thanks,
Your sis
