7/1/2016 0 Comments Spinach Mushroom Frittata![]() I like eggs and the protein they provide, but I’ve gotten a bit tired of them. I find this dish more interesting and enjoyable, and I like the added dimension of red potatoes. Spinach is high in antioxidants and is a rich source of folate and vitamin C. Folate is the form of folic acid found in food. Folic acid is a member of the B vitamin family. Low folate levels are connected with poor cognitive function and dementia in the elderly. Spinach also contains a wide variety of phytonutrients, including flavonoids and carotenoids. Spinach’s flavor compounds have been shown to have powerful anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer properties. You will notice red potatoes in this recipe. While I don’t often use potatoes, as they are members of the nightshade family, I do eat them occasionally. Depending on your sensitivity, you may want to consider using potatoes sparingly or leaving them out entirely.
