Description
Malabar spinach is high in Vitamin A, Vitamin C, iron, and calcium. The leafy green has a high amount of protein for a plant and is also a great source of magnesium, phosphorus, and potassium. Another good reason to eat malabar spinach is that it has a good amount of antioxidants, particularly beta carotene and lutein, those naturally occurring chemicals that help keep your cells from aging. Malabar spinach can be eaten raw in sandwiches or salads or lightly cooked. When using it in a stir fry, add it just at the last minute and heat just enough to wilt the leaves. The sturdy leaves hold up well in the refrigerator, lasting for 4 or 5 days.
