Bulgur and Spinach Pottage

I've already written about the nutritional value of Bulgur and why it's a good addition to a fertility diet. Please read about it here.

Spinach is virtually a super food, remember Popeye? Consumption of spinach in moderation is a must for a fertility diet. Spinach is full of folate, zinc, iron and antioxidants. I'm sure y'all know what that means. Not only is this recipe fertility-friendly, it's actually quite beneficial to pregnant and nursing women as well.

This recipe is yummy, the pairing of the spinach and the bulgur is a match made in heaven (Deema, u like food sha!). Please use boneless fish, that's very important. I used swak, but you can use anything you like.

Ingredients

1 cup of bulgur
400g of fresh spinach
1 1/2 cups of sliced button mushrooms
1 red onion, sliced
4 fish fillets, steamed
3 tablespoons of freshly blended atarodo (habanero)
1 Knorr double stock cube
2 cloves of garlic, diced
2 tablespoons of butter
1 teaspoon of salt

Method

Flake the steamed fish with a fork. In a pot on medium-high heat, add 3 cups of water. Add the butter and the stock cubes. Bring it to a boil, add the bulgur. Simmer for 3 minutes, then turn off the heat to allow the bulgur soak up the liquid.

In another pot, put the spinach. Set the pot over medium-low heat. Leave the spinach to cook down, then add the onions, mushrooms, salt, garlic, pepper and fish. Stir and simmer for 2 minutes. Add the bulgur and stir to combine. Leave to cook for 2 more minutes. Serve...

Remember,
It's sooo good for you!
