what things can you cook

[andy]

Ooh, lovely Joseph! I look forward to that later then!

Hey Joseph/Limy - how did the chocolate cake turn out?

I can cook.... Eggs, Sausages, chips, Chicken... I can cook lots but it tends to be junk ;p or burnt haha

Get a timer from the pound shop if you haven't got one built-in to your cooker... I couldn't live without one... otherwise my stuff would be burnt too!

Actually, Andy, it appears that the high iron content in spinach is a bit of a fraudulous myth. It will of course, like any leafy green vegetable contain quite a lot of calcium, but for iron content you'd be better off with other vegetables, notably pulses and some nuts, or offal and sea foods.
more than 10 mg for 100 g :
Clams (26);
mussels (24);
black (blood) pudding (20);
pig liver (15);
lamb liver (10)
ox liver (10)
parsley (10) surprisingly

fava beans (9)
rabbit liver (7.9)
chick peas (7.2)
ox kidney (7)
lentils (6)
egg yolk (6)
oysters (5.5)
calf liver (5)
cashew nuts (5)

raw almonds (4.5)
raw haselnuts (4.5)
spinach (4)
wholewheat flour (4)
dessicated coconut (3.6)
prunes (3.4)
dandelion (3.2)
raisins / sultanas (3.3)
etc...

Eek thanks for the list! I read about it having more iron in loads of places! :eek: E.g. Spinach - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I still love the taste though... had king prawn saag last week and it was really tasty!

I love seafood but couldn't eat offal like liver or kidneys... or cute bunnies either... YUCKIES! lol I don't eat much lamb or pork either but eat lots of the other stuff you mentioned as well as taking multivitimins and fish oil/omega supplements every day... :biggrin:
