Here is my favorite way to cook spinach. Somehow it always starts with dicing onion and garlic. Then add some ginger and your rice and your spices and you simmer it on low. Don’t forget the tofu for a high protein dish, and you are all set! It’s super easy, super nutritious and delicious.

Here we go:
