oooh! This looks great, I might try it! I have Crohn's Disease so I have to be careful with food, but stuff like Spinach is supposedly a "super food" for Crohn's! ^_^

Nice Nayna. We don't have rice often enough, but this is definitely more appealing than plain rice.

It was baby spinach , I piled the leaves one on top another , rolled the pile into cigar shape and then finely chopped it Ryan, bit tedious but great results.You could just put it into a food processor if you wanted. but be careful you do not want spinach puree as it will tint rice green.
