Mediterranean Spinach and Rice

from Kraft Foods. If you make the recipe as-is, it is more spinach-y and less rice-y. A 10-oz block of frozen spinach works nicely. I prefer more rice, so I use less spinach and usually go with brown rice. Great additions at the end include: chicken, toasted almonds, dried fruit, herbs to your liking, and anything else your heart desires! Note: Cooking time omits the time to cook the rice (you can use minute rice, a rice cooker, or stovetop - whatever you prefer).
