I'm not a huge fan of feta cheese, but I really enjoyed this dish. The mint and lemon helped to balance out the strong flavor of the cheese.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover rice. I simply added the feta cheese, mint, and lemon juice to the cooked rice and stirred until combined. It was a quick and easy side dish that was full of flavor.

I made this dish last night and it was a hit! My family loved the creamy texture of the rice and the tangy flavor of the feta cheese. The mint added a refreshing touch.
