SEASONED AFRICAN SPINACH

I don't know why this recipe is African. It came to me from a friend in Pennsylvania, who has no African roots that I know of. It can be a complete, vegetarian meal served with rice, or a more protein-rich meal with the addition of a chicken breast. Preparation time does not include cooking rice.

AFRICAN SPINACH AND PEANUT BUTTER STEW

Found online at www.fooddownunder.com, while looking for economical 'African' recipes. Tasty and nutritious, a vegetarian main dish or a good side dish. You could easily add garlic, cooking it with the onions, add some mushrooms, adding with the tomatoes, and I think some chilli, fresh, powdered or flaked, would also add a bit of spice to this very versatile dish!
