- Dilute tomato paste in about 8 ozs of warm water and add to pot.
- Increase heat and allow mixture to come to just under a boil.
- Add fresh spinach (you may have to clean the spinach if it's sandy and remove hard stems) to the pot along with the fresh basil and add about 6 cups water.
- Allow to come to a boil and add 1-1/4 cup of rice.
- White or brown work equally well.
- **DONOT use minute rice or other fast cooking types.
- Reduce heat and simmer about 45- 50 minutes.
- Remove from heat and it's ready.
