It's a version of a southern salad. All you do is add spinach (canned, frozen, whatever) to eggs as you are scrambling them. It turns the eggs a really funky shade of green, but is so full of iron and doesn't taste bad. I've made it one or twice for Hubs and he enjoys it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/iron-recipes#post-225412 Wed, 18 Jul 2012 13:20:19 +0000 autumnlove 225412@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I heard liver but I won't touch it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/iron-recipes#post-225391 Wed, 18 Jul 2012 13:15:13 +0000 chopsuey 225391@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Steak, marinate with sea salt and pepper. </p> <p>Make a HUGE spinach salad with eggs!
