Red Spanakorizo: Greek Spinach and Rice with Tomatoes
Report
This is a spin on spanakorizo, a traditional Greek dish similar to an Oriental pilaf, made with rice, spinach and tomatoes. Diced tomatoes are added to the standard spanakorizo dish. It's a great vegan side dish, but can also be enjoyed as a main dish.

- 400 gr diced tomatoes
- 600 gr spinach cleaned
- 4 tbsp Dill chopped

- Add the broth and the diced tomatoes, lower the heat to medium, and cook for 20 minutes. Be sure to stir every 2 minutes to prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom.
