I really love Greek food, and one of my favourite slow cooker recipes is my Greek Chicken recipe. It has all the flavour of a succulent gyros. I usually serve it with salad and in a pitta bread or wrap. I sometimes have some left over, so wanted to come up with a tasty new dish to use up the leftovers.

I love a one pot dish, so this Greek rice dish is the creation I came up with. Some tasty veg, stodgy rice and lots of yummy Greek flavours. I added some olives, which are usually 1.5 syns for 8. I used small slices and this dish serves for, so the syns are almost too small to mention. If you're eating all to yourself, then maybe add some syns!!

Thinking of trying out this recipe? If you do, I would love to see a picture of your creation! @SugarPinkFood on Twitter, @sugarpinkfood_sw on instagram or Sugar Pink Food: Slimming World Recipes on Facebook! 

I added all the ingredients and left it to simmer. It came out sooo tasty. I posted it onto my Facebook page and loads of you wanted the recipe. I served this with some salad and halloumi as my Healthy Extra.
