Spinach Day
Toss it into the sauce on homemade pizza, mix it with your salad greens and enjoy one of the healthiest foods on Earth, spinach. It's rich in vitamins K, A and C as well as folate, iron, magnesium and calcium, according to World's Healthiest Foods.
Spinach has a solid place in the U.S. even if it's never been the most popular vegetable. The leafy green was a year-round crop in colonial Williamsburg, Va., and the governor of Massachusetts Bay Colony (1631) bought seeds for "spynadge," according to "The Oxford Companion to American Food and Drink" although it had a reputation for being "sandy."
Celebrate this mild, healthy green in:
* Spinach and strawberry salad
* Warm spinach-artichoke dip
* Sesame noodles with spinach and salmon
