spinach

Read an article in m and f that said spinach actually is good for your muscles haha. Anybody else heard about this?

Popeye endorses it and that's good enough for me.

Spinach is a good source of many vitamins and minerals, and a low to moderate source of protein, calories, fiber, and carbohydrates, but contains no fat. All in all, it should be included in a diet along with any other green, leafy vegetable, but it certainly shouldn't be singled out as a great muscle builder either.

I figured a salad of spinach and chopped almonds would be a good addition to dinner.

I used to cycle spinach/broccoli but now I do broccoli/asparagus... It can definitely be a good addition to your diet

I am sure it is good as a general nutrient that rich in beneficial compounds, but doubt its effect counts be "significant" in a major way.

I like spinach as a salad. It is a green leafy vegetables which should be a staple of your diet. I persoanlly could not stand broccoli until i started making it myself. I steam it for a few minutes then throw it in a hot skillet with some garlic for about a minute. It is very tender and tastes great

Hey, what do you guys put on Asparagus, and how do you cook it? I love the stuff, but I've only ever had it boiled with lemon butter. Obviously, butter is out with my diet...

I use an incredibly small amount of olive oil. Then some pepper. anything healthier than olive oil that will still cook it the same?

Btw I bake it in the oven
