What to pair it with
Tea, coffee and milk — separately
This is rich in plant iron. Tea, coffee and dairy at the same meal noticeably lower its absorption — have them an hour before or 1–2 hours after.

Add vitamin C
Bell pepper, sauerkraut, citrus or kiwi at the same meal raise plant iron absorption several times over.
