Sauteed Spinach
Did you know that dark leafy greens are the healthiest food that a person can eat? It's important to be getting a large quantity of these greens on a daily basis. I love salads and eat them often but some days I just want to switch it up a bit. This recipe is quick to prepare and works great for any meal of the day. Yes, even breakfast. I pair it with 2 pastured eggs and it allows me to get my day started in a healthy manner and holds me over until lunch.
