In The Kitchen With April

Today my daughter tried to donate blood but was unable to do so because of low iron levels.  My brain went into high gear thinking of a delicious dish she would enjoy that would help get her iron up.  Since black-eyed peas are a good source of potassium and iron this recipe should do the trick.  Another plus is both black-eyed peas and spinach are high in fiber.  Served this black-eyed pea dish with garlic yogurt makes it even more healthy.
