Wilted Spinach Salad

This is a great boost of iron into your diet. I like to add a sunny-side up egg or steak for extra protein/iron. The leaves should be wilted, not limp and soggy so this one will need your attention for 5 minutes max. For me, this is a perfect dinner free from starchy/sugary carbs. I always wake up feeling amazing the next day and it enhances any development from a good work out. Bon appetit!


  • 1 bunch of organic spinach
  • 1 clove of organic garlic
  • A healthy pinch of sea salt & pepper
  • 1 tsp EVOO
  • optional: lemon



  1. Wash & drain spinach very well. Allow to dry thoroughly.
  2. Heat large pan to medium. 
  3. Add 1 tsp EVOO and warm. 
  4. Stir in thinly sliced garlic & saute until soft. 
  5. Add spinach on top, tossing regularly with EVOO & garlic.
  6. Add sea salt & fresh pepper. 
  7. This should take less than 5 minutes. You want the leaves a deep green, with shape to the leaves still. 
  8. You may want to garnish with a light spritz of freshly squeezed lemon. 
*Excellent as a side to the Lemon Butter Steak (will post soon!)
