supposedly high in iron: steak & asparagus
Ingredients: Cooking for one
1 filet mignon
1 garlic glove
Salt and pepper
2-3 teaspoons of olive oil
2 cups baby spinach
Cranberries (completely optional)
1 bunch of asparagus
Lemon (optional)
To donate blood you have to have an iron percentage of 38. For me, that is a struggle so I decided to up it on the iron. I cooked the steak, spinach, and asparagus. Failed at 37 percentile. Lame is all I have to say about that.
Anyways...
Directions:
Place the stove top on medium to high heat, cooking the olive oil till barely smoking then add baby spinach. Salt and pepper the steaks as well as add minced garlic to each side. Cook it to your liking, I'm a fan of medium rare... I added cranberries just because of their colorful appearance. In the mean time start a pot of water. Once it has been brought to a boil steam the asparagus. It is a simple, hearty, HIGH in iron and filling meal.
Hope you enjoy!
