Mediterranean Rice Salad

This comes from the Sunset Magazine. It's very good. Our problem is even though we eat healthy food, we tend to overeat because it's so yummy!

• 1 1/2 cup rice (I just cook mine in the rice cooker)
• 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
• 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon fresh oregano, minced
• 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
• 2 cups chopped spinach leaves
• 1 red bell pepper, finely chopped
• 1 small cucumber, peeled, seeded, and finely chopped
• 1/2 cup chopped green onion
• 1/2 cup chopped kalamata olives (we often leave this out)
• 1 cup crumbled feta cheese

In a large bowl, whisk lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, oregano, pepper, pepper flakes and 1 teaspoon salt. Add riced to dressing and toss to combine. Add spinach toss and let sit until no longer steaming. Add remaining ingredients and toss to combine. Serve at room temp or cold.
