    Spinach and Rice

    Written by Living the Gourmet, a trusted food and lifestyle site since 2008.

    Simple dishes that are tasty and satisfying for a summer meal all you need is a good loaf of bread a hunk of cheese.
    Ingredients:
    2 cups uncooked rice
    1 bunch of fresh spinach
    1 quart of button mushrooms - sliced
    1 vine ripe tomato - diced
    4 cloves of garlic - chopped
    ½ red onion - sliced thin
    1 cups of chickpeas
    1 cup of olives - pitted
    2 tablespoons red wine
    ½ tsp. salt
    ¼ tsp. black pepper
    ¼ tsp. red pepper flakes
    3 tablespoons olive oil
    Prepare the rice as directed and set aside.
    Heat a large frying pan with a tablespoon of olive oil.  Add the sliced mushrooms and onions.  When a nice golden color is reached on the mushrooms; remove and set aside.
    Heat the same pan with a tablespoon of olive oil and add the spinach, tomato and garlic.  Add the seasonings and wine.  Sauté until the spinach is wilted and the garlic is fragrant.
    Add the rice, chick peas and the mushrooms to the pan and toss.
    Place in a serving bowl with a drizzle of olive oil and serve.
    Enjoy with Love,
    Catherine

      You're right that this is a perfect summer dish. You can easily add meat and turn it into a main dish or serve it as a side dish.
