Nutritional values

Spinach provides a considerable amount of pro-vitamin A, which promotes vision and a radiant complexion. Peas provide vegetable protein and valuable fiber, which stimulates digestion and positively affects the intestinal flora.

Canned peas should be avoided, as they often contain a lot of salt and sugar. Instead, use fresh peas.
