Hello cuties, this is indian spinach from my garden and prepared for lunch.It is highly nutritous and easy to grow. Has high levels of Vitamin A, B, and C, calcium, magnesium, manganese, phosphorous, zinc and decent amounts of copper and iron.

It is very easy to grow, you just have to water them and put fertiliser once a fortnight.

It's delicious served with rice and fried fish. I use to eat this everyday when I had hot flushes during menopausal, it has a cooling effect.

It looks wonderful. To bad I don't live in a warm tropical climate as I would love to grow it. From what I read it appears it has more nutrition then our regular spinach we go here in Arkansas. Thank you for sharing.
Hugs...Carol

I think I will grow spinach next year. This looks lighter in color than regular spinach which I hope is reflected in it's flavor. The meal looks absolutely delicious. I have 1 sweet bell pepper in my garden now. I still have a bit of grow season to go, or it could be the most expensive pepper I have ever bought! Lol!

Yes, you should try.I see you like gardening too....I have planted pepper many times but it doesnt grow well. I have given up and now I have planted okra and some herbal plants which are easier to manage.
