I really enjoyed this one...used 2 10 ounce bags of spinach and scaled back on the other ingredients proportionately (except the chili :) ) used grape tomatoes dices a bit, raw honey (local) and homemade nut butter-serve with basmati rice and cashew crusted oven fried tofu (the extra sauce juice tasted SOOO good on the rice and tofu too) will definitely make again because I likes me spinach :) :)-thanks so much MamaHelen for the recipe share...made for "I Recommend Tag " - a winner!

Very tasty - makes for a great, light lunch! I made 1/2 recipe but used only 300 g of fresh spinach; still, I got very generous servings! Used 1/4 ts of chili powder and will up the amount the next time. As written, the recipe turns out more stew-like than a sauce, which is perfect for me as I tend to like "dry" food. Thanks for sharing the recipe MamaHelen!
