← Replies in Iron Rich Spinach Pesto Pasta (vegan & gluten free) Recipe

Very rich and herby, I forgot to mix the pasta water in so it was a little grainy, but felt very healthy overall. I’m anemic so we made some grilled chicken with it for some extra protein.

Ques please... Anemic means low on iron. I lean toward anemic. How does chicken help? Any advice helps. Thx

Chicken has vitamin B12 and K which aid in the absorption of iron. Red meats and most proteins will work. You should also avoid eating cheese or dairy at the same time as your leafy greens because the calcium can affect how well your body absorbs the iron.
