This dish is choc full of good stuff. It has plenty of protein and healthy fats, as well as many micronutrients. Oh, and of course it’s low-carb! <\/p>\n
Spinach<\/h3>\n
This is a lovely green leafy vegetable that belongs to a category of foods with a high nutritional value. It has a good amount of antioxidants in it. Spinach can be found all year long, but especially in the winter. We need this, don’t we? It can be made into a salad, an appetizer, or the main course. This vegetable can be made in many ways, and it has many health benefits. Here are the most important ones:<\/p>\n
\n- Spinach is high in phytonutrients, which help to promote overall health and prevent the emergence of diseases.<\/li>\n
- Spinach is a great source of iron, which is necessary for the production of red blood cells.<\/li>\n
- Fresh spinach contains nearly a quarter of the daily required iron intake in just 100 grams.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Don’t forget to include fresh spinach in your salads because it is high in vitamins A and C, lutein, and beta carotene. When these substances are combined, they provide great protection against the onset of a wide range of disorders. They help to minimize the number of free radicals in the body and aid in the healing of damage caused by free radicals.<\/p>\n
Cottage cheese<\/h3>\n
This is the ‘secret ingredient’, and largely what makes it a lovely and filling dish that won’t blow out your calories for the day. Cottage cheese is a soft, moist and creamy white cheese that is drained and unpressed (which gives it its signature texture). This unique manufacturing process results in it being very low-fat (most are only about 4% by weight), but high protein – thus making it a versatile food on the keto diet. Good cottage cheese should have a mild and slightly sweet flavor, depending on the amount of salt added in.<\/p>\n
Greek feta cheese<\/h3>\n
Sheep and goat milk products are typically healthier than cow’s milk products! When feta is made the traditional way, it is known as unpasteurized sheep milk that has lost all of its sugar throughout the fermentation process! What makes it keto-friendly? In most cases, you’ll find more than 50% healthy fats, moderate protein, nearly no carbs, and a reasonable quantity of sodium to aid fat digestion!<\/p>\n
There are so many minerals in this keto Spanakopita!<\/h3>\n
Feta contains calcium, the B-complex vitamins riboflavin, vitamin B12, and B6, and the antioxidant pantothenic acid. Vitamin A, iron, zinc, phosphorus, and a variety of other trace elements are also present (magnesium, selenium, potassium, copper, and manganese).<\/p>\n
