Rice with spinach and mushrooms
A few posts ago we explained the benefits of the new TERRA collection from BRA , to make a brief summary, with TERRA we can cook taking care of the environment as well as saving in our kitchen.
Today we have used our TERRA saucepan to prepare this autumnal dish that is so good for us on rainy days like the ones we are having: rice with spinach and mushrooms .
For those who do not know, spinach is an antioxidant par excellence , so it will help us prevent premature aging; In addition, they have a high fiber content, which controls and regulates intestinal transit; we could say that they are a natural laxative. These vegetables have a great energy value both in vitamins and minerals and due to the total absence of fat, they are used in all slimming diets.
Did you know that spinach has a lot of calcium? so they are great for our bones and teeth. Oh, and lots of folic acid, perfect for pregnant women, those with gout, arthritis, and kidney stones.
