Contrary to popular belief, spinach is not a particularly significant source of iron. The myth around its high iron content was born from a study in which a decimal point had been moved by mistake. However, spinach does contain many important nutrients—especially antioxidants and bioflavonoids that help stop carcinogenic substances and processes. Spinach is, for example, rich in carotenoids, plant pigments that are responsible for its dark green color. Spinach is a good source of antioxidants essential for our skin and our health, whether raw, cooked, canned, or frozen.

So is this a spinach recipe or a kale recipe? You obviously took pictures for one recipe and copy and pasted a different recipe in here. Sloppy.

The picture is not representative of the ingredients. Kale versus spinach, whole egg versus beaten eggs??!!
