This sounds like the perfect side dish to a simple protein. I really enjoy providing my family with healthy meals and sides. Yummy!
Spinach or chard are my two most favourite vegetables so this dish is definitely for me. Diane

delicious rice looks healthy
Mmmmmm...this sounds wonderful! My husband and I adore spinach, and we would both love this meal! I'll have to make it sometime! :)
A simple dish but very good. In some preparations have tried the Basmati rice variety, I love it.
Greetings!
Absolutely love the green masala ingredients and I am sure that made all the difference as Spinach on its own is very bland.
Oh, I adore spinach, but never have added it to rice! I love this idea...and will test it out soon :)
Hey- i made this with a bought masala paste and your recipe- it was awesome. Cheers!
