Lina's Awesome Lebanese Spinach Beef Rice

This is a recipe that my mom use to make for us growing up (she still makes it for us :p). it's my absolute favorite and it's healthy! this dish is made with spinach, ground beef, and loads of flavor! enjoy :)

Steps

In a cooking pot , add olive oil and heat for a moment.
Add onions and saut.
Add ground beef and cook until beef is brown.
Add allspice , cinnamon , and salt.
Mix.
Add spinach and saut with meat for a moment.
Once its all mixed well together , add water to the pot , just enough to cover the spinach cover and let the spinach meat mixure boil and then turn it down to medium heat and let it simmer / boil for a good 30 minutes.
Meanwhile , get a saut pan and add some olive oil , the garlic , and the chopped cilantro and saut that mixture together.
Add cilantro / garlic mixture to the spinach.
Cover and let it simmer for about 15 more minutes.
Serve with rice and squeeze lemon juice on top !.
Using frozen chopped spinach works better than fresh spinach.
It does not turn out the same if you use fresh.
The frozen chopped is much better.
I have tried both.
Trust me !.
Be sure when adding water to the pot that you dont add too much.
You want just enough to cover the spinach',.
