Usually people cut off and toss the spinach roots, but the roots are rich in iron, manganese, polyphenols and other antioxidants that help prevent anemia and slow aging. Trim them well and eat them whole whenever you can.
Adding lemon juice to spinach boosts iron absorption. Plus, lemon juice adds acidity to the tomatoes, giving the dish a fresh, balanced flavor.
