Spinach

  • Highly nutritious green vegetable
  • One cup contains more than your daily requirement of vitamin K and A, and most of manganese and folate your body needs
  • Low in calories
  • Contains many flavonoids – prevent cancer
  • Rich in magnesium – lowers blood pressure.

Cooking spinach with pine nuts give the veg a lift and is very nutritious.
