Cooking Instructions
- 1
Wash the spinach really well! Spinach holds a lot of soil. Boil water in the kettle.
- 2
Finely chop the onions and mince the garlic.
- 3
Cover the bottom of a medium saucepot with olive oil (1 finger high). Cook the onions until they're translucent and the garlic over medium/high heat. You don't want these too be raw and overpower the spinach.
- 4
Season the onions and garlic well with salt, pepper and a little bit of cumin (optional).
- 5
Add the minced meat into the pot and cook. You want the pot to be hot enough that the meat caramelizes. This adds a layer of flavor.
- 6
Once the meat cooks, add the spinach into the pot and toss stuff around a while. Make sure everyone gets time to cook. In 2-3 minutes, add the tomatoes. Toss everyone again.
- 7
Add the rice and a cup of boiling water. Adjust amount of water, but keep in mind that spinach releases a lot of water as it cooks!
- 8
Turn down the heat to med/low, cover the pot, and cook until everything comes together. Approx 20 minutes.
- 9
Serve with some greek yogurt!! :)

Spinach Stew with Chicken Broth Spinach Stew with Chicken Broth
The first time I tried spinach stew was today, and I really liked it! Its flavor is similar to molokhia, with a slight difference (of course, nothing beats molokhia ♥️), but honestly, it's delicious and very nutritious because spinach is packed with minerals and vitamins. I wanted to share this dish with you—hope you enjoy it, and thank you! 😄

Italian Chicken Stew Italian Chicken Stew
A simple and tasty stew I've been making for ages. I usually add what I have on hand - if I don't have good olives I'll substitute cannellini beans. Anything fresh gets thrown in - fresh tomatoes, fresh herbs, a handful of spinach.....Hope you enjoy : )

Greek Yogurt Butter Chicken Stew Greek Yogurt Butter Chicken Stew
Got this recipe from NYT Cooking when I was feeling a little adventurous (don't know what to cook, more like). It's savory and although reminds me of curry, it is not spicy at all. Goes great with rice. There are a lot of ingredients on the list so, adjust to suit taste. There's no sugar in original article, I just like to make a little sweeter)
