Spinach is a nutrient-dense leafy green vegetable that is rich in vitamins A, C, and K, as well as iron, magnesium, and antioxidants. The high iron content in spinach helps combat anemia, which is common in women with PCOS. Magnesium helps reduce inflammation and improve insulin sensitivity. The antioxidants in spinach can help lower oxidative stress, which is beneficial for managing PCOS symptoms. Including spinach in your diet can support overall health and well-being.

Ingredients

THE BURGER

2 Pounds Ground Beef
200g ( ~2 Cups ) Sliced Mushrooms
1/2 Medium Onion
1/2 Yellow Bell Pepper
1 Tbsp. Tone’s Southwest Chipotle Seasoning
2 1/2 tsp. Salt
2 tsp. Cumin
1 tsp. Pepper
1 tsp. Red Pepper Flakes
THE SIDE SALAD

5 Cups Raw Spinach
1/3 Cup Roasted Almonds
2 Tbsp. Cream Cheese
1 Tbsp. Heavy Cream
1 Tbsp. Butter
1 tsp. Red Pepper Flakes
Pinch Pepper
Pinch Salt

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 450 Convection mode, or 475 regular bake. Convection is the preferred method here and my timings may be off a little bit for baking.
2. Add 200g (about 2 cups) sliced mushrooms to a food processor.
3. Pulse the mushrooms until they are finely diced.
4. Measure out your meat in a large mixing bowl.
5. Add your mushrooms.
6. Add all spices except the cumin to your mix and mix it well. Make sure all the mushrooms and spices are well distributed in the meat.
7. In your food processor, pulse 1/2 Onion and 1/2 Bell Pepper until finely diced.
8. Add your onion and bell pepper to the meat mixture and add your cumin to that. Mix it well so that everything is incorporated.
9. Find a baking sheet and cover it with foil.
10. Pout about 1/4 Cup Salt over the baking sheet so that it can absorb the grease that drips off the burger. This will stop any smoke from happening when the grease burns.
11. Form 6 burger patties from the meat. You should have a little bit of meat left over – save it.
12. Place your 6 patties on a cooling rack and position it over the salt on the baking sheet. Put this in the oven for 19-22 minutes on convection, or 20-25 minutes on bake. Watch them closely when they get to their timer because it can overcook quickly.
13. In a pan, add your remaining meat.
14. Let it cook down and brown some.
15. Add your spinach to the pan with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Let the spinach wilt down.
16. Add your roasted almonds and cook for a minute or two.
17. Add your butter, cream cheese, and heavy cream to the pan and stir it into the spinach.
18. Continue to stir the creamed spinach and then let it sit in the pan warm on lowest heat.
19. Take your burgers out of the oven. They should have a nice browning on the tops.
20. Serve plated portions of 1 1/2 patty and 1/4 of the creamed spinach.
