Ingredients

• 1 cup Brown Rice
• 2 teaspoons kosher salt, divided
• 1/4 cup Vegetable stock
• 2 teaspoons sugar
• 1 tablespoon good olive oil
• Freshly ground black pepper
• 1 tbsp chopped rosemary
• 2 ripe tomatoes, large-diced
• 1 cup packed baby spinach (1 large bunch), chopped

Directions

Bring 2 1/4 cups water to a boil and add the rice and 1 teaspoon of the salt. Return to a boil, cover, and simmer for 30 to 40 minutes, until the rice is tender and all the water is absorbed. Transfer the rice to a bowl.

Whisk together the vinegar, sugar, olive oil, remaining teaspoon of salt, and a pinch of pepper. Pour over the rice. Add the tomatoes, spinach and rosemary. Mix well and check the seasonings. Serve at room temperature.
