This soup/stew is unintentionally vegetarian and healthy. :) I threw this together in response to our Ethnic Race game on the Playful Pantry group....first stop, Greece...or, at least, what might come out of my kitchen if I were living in Greece! Read more ! :)

28oz tomato sauce
14ish oz diced tomatoes
1 cup dry wheatberries

1/3 cup white wine
juice from 1 lemon

3 cloves garlic, minced
1 large onion, diced
1-3 jalapenos, diced(seeded, if desired...i used 3, seeds and all)

1t dry mustard, divided
1t oregano, divided
8oz fresh baby spinach
