There are many, because the long E is the normal sound of the I in Spanish, as well as the word "y" (ee) that means "and."

Some simple words include

dormir (door-meer) -- to sleep

frio (free-oh) -- cold

mi (mee) -- my

libro (lee-broh) -- book

In Spanish, the E sounds like the short E as in "pet" or most commonly like the long A as in "say", and never like the English long E in "gene" or "bead".
