I make a Thai meal that starts with rice, then a bed of raw spinach, top spinach with a mix of chicken and peanut sauce. Great meal...

Wow! I just ate and after reading that I'm hungry all over again. :drool: I assume you are using Jasmine/Sweet rice in that, aren't you?

this is said wife..... I cook the chicken flavored rice in the rice cooker (I dont follow the directions on package to brown it in butter first. I add the amount of water and butter and cook it) and add canned spinach then cook. I've done it with beef flavored rice too. Its the only way to get the hubs to eat it.
Instead of adding water for your rice. Use chicken stock. That will make Chicken flavored rice.

add whole peanuts - I love the crunch in dishes like this.
I got a bag the kids know to stay out of, they're cookin peanuts.
Also like me some curry paste in a dish like this. I was on a thai kick for ahwile :chuckle:

Try using fresh spinach instead of canned, I think you will be pleasantly surprised.
