This easy and flavorful pasta dish is inspired by spanakorizo, the classic Greek spinach and rice dish. But instead of rice, we’re using pasta to create a comforting, cheesy meal that comes together in no time! Tender spinach, garlic, and aromatic dill pair beautifully with tangy feta and a squeeze of fresh lemon for brightness. Serve it as a satisfying main course or a delicious side!
