Start With Sweet Red Peppers

First, use a large pan. Then sauté the peppers in olive oil with a bit of garlic. Add some sliced mushrooms and whole grape tomatoes allowing them to cook for a few minutes.

Then cover the pan and let the leafy greens cook down. Because this vegetable takes up a lot of real

Popeye knew where to get his strength!

Eating On A Daniel Fast
I know many of us are trying to shed pounds and eat healthier at the beginning of the new year. That's why I thought you'd like this recipe. It was something I whipped up in my kitchen recently while following a Daniel fast.
For the past 3 years, I have joined with others in a 21-day prayer and Daniel fast in the month of January. Basically, the fast is a diet of drinking only water and eating fruits and vegetables while abstaining from sugar, bread, dairy, and meat. I wasn't going to mention it, but this fast has been too good for me not to tell.

Some of the results I've experienced have been that I'm feeling better overall with clearer thinking. Also, I have better time management, and the best is a greater sense of God's presence along with answered prayers.
If you're interested, the internet has a wealth of information about a Daniel Fast. It may be just the thing you need during this season in your life.
If you'd like another healthy spinach recipe, here is a Creamed Spinach side dish for you. It's excellent for Keto dieting or just healthy eating.
