Before starting, preheat the oven to 400°F. Wash and dry all produce. Heat a large pot over medium heat. When hot, add 1 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then beef, rice, onions, garlic puree and Middle Eastern Seasoning. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, breaking beef up into smaller pieces, until no pink remains, 4-5 min.**
Add almonds, broth concentrate, 1/2 tsp salt and 1 1/2 cups water (dbl both for 4 ppl) to the pot. Increase heat to medium-high. Season with pepper, then stir to combine. Bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to low. Cover and cook until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, 14-17 min.
While casserole cooks, roughly chop spinach. Roughly chop parsley. Cut tomato into 1/4-inch pieces. Add parsley, tomatoes, vinegar and 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl) to a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to combine.
Pat pitas on both sides with a damp paper towel, then wrap in foil to create a packet. Place in the middle of the oven for 4-5 min, until warmed through.
When rice is tender, add spinach to casserole. Stir until wilted, 1-2 min.
Cut pitas into wedges. Divide casserole between bowls. Spoon tomato salad over top. Serve pitas on the side with tzatziki alongside for dipping.
