Made this tonight and it was very, very tasty. It seems to me that if you are not eating "healthy", I can imagine that wrapped in a tortilla with fresh tomatoes would work well.

This recipe was made in my quest for meals high in iron. It was simple to make and very tasty. I increased the garlic to 5 cloves and used fresh spinach. It was also good the next day warmed up!
