🌱 Why is it nourishing?
Spinach is a leafy green rich in plant-based iron and folate, while eggs and cheese provide quality protein. Together they can make a mother's meal both filling and quick to prepare on busy days. The iron in spinach cooked with olive oil can be complemented by a vitamin C source, such as a vegetable or fruit, eaten alongside.
