Celebrating Spinach Lovers Month

DanThis Land of Ours, Vegetables

celebratingCathy Isom has us celebrating the power of a green, leafy vegetable that goes great in salads, sandwiches and many other dishes. That’s coming up on This Land of Ours.

Celebrating Spinach Lovers Month

October is Spinach Lovers Month, so why not give this nutritionally packed leafy green, which is also one of the world’s top 10 Superfoods, some extra special attention.

It’s packed with antioxidants including Vitamin C and beta-carotene. One cup of fresh spinach gives you nearly DOUBLE the daily requirement for Vitamin K, which plays an important role in cardiovascular and bone health. And the list goes on and on.

The best part? You can almost always find a way to add spinach to breakfast, lunch, or dinner, or all 3 if you’re feeling extra nutritious that day! Whether you sauté it in olive oil and add it to your eggs in the morning, or use it as a fresh bed for your salad during the day, it packs a big healthy punch.
