- Add the Arborio rice and cook for about a minute. Turn the heat to medium-low and add the wine. Stir and allow the arborio rice to soak up the wine.1 cup arborio rice, 1/2 cup white wine
- Once the wine is absorbed, add 2 cups of the tomato mixture. Stir and allow the rice to absorb it. This will take a bit of time, continue to stir occasionally as the rice absorbs the mixture.
- Continue adding the tomato mixture to the rice, one cup at a time, and allow the rice to cook and absorb the liquid. This will take approximately 30 minutes.
- Once the rice is creamy and tender, remove it from the heat. (You may not need all the liquid.) Stir in the spinach a little at a time, letting it wilt. Taste and add salt and pepper to taste.9 ounces baby spinach
