Sesame-Garlic Spinach Stir-Fry

Remove stems from spinach if you do not like these on. Rinse the leaves when needed.
 
Heat oil over medium-high heat on a non-stick skillet and add in sesame seeds. You have to be careful on this as oil gets hot quickly and sesame seeds get lightly browned quickly as well.
 
Once sesame seeds are lightly browned, quickly add in garlic and sauté until golden brown. 
 
Quickly add in spinach leaves. When they begin to wilt, season to taste with salt and lemon and pepper spice.
 
Remove from heat and serve over steamed rice or as a side-dish of your favorite entrée.
 
Know what you eat:

 
Spinach. Spinach has a high nutritional value and is extremely rich in antioxidants, especially when fresh, steamed, or quickly boiled. It is a rich source of vitamin A (and especially high in lutein), vitamin C, vitamin E, vitamin K, magnesium, manganese, folate, betaine, iron, vitamin B2, calcium, potassium, vitamin B6, folic acid, copper, protein, phosphorus, zinc, niacin, selenium and omega-3 fatty acids. Recently, opioid peptides called rubiscolins have also been found in spinach.
 
Polyglutamyl folate (vitamin B9 or folic acid) is a vital constituent of cells, and spinach is a good source of folic acid. Boiling spinach can more than halve the level of folate left in the spinach, but microwaving does not affect folate content.[8] Vitamin B9 was first isolated from spinach in 1941.
 
Garlic. Garlic is mentioned in the Bible and the Talmud. Hippocrates, Galen, Pliny the Elder, and Dioscorides all mention the use of garlic for many conditions, including parasites, respiratory problems, poor digestion, and low energy.
 
Sesame Seeds. Sesame seeds contain phytosterols associated with reduced levels of blood cholesterol.[citation needed] Sesame seeds are a good source of calcium and are therefore suitable for sufferers of osteoporosis. Sesame seeds contain a high amount of the antioxidant phytic acid.[citation needed] The nutrients of sesame seeds are better absorbed if they are ground or pulverized before consumption, as in tahini.
Women of ancient Babylon would eat halva, a mixture of honey and sesame seeds to prolong youth and beauty, while Roman soldiers ate the mixture for strength and energy.[19]
