Blackstrap Molasses recipes wanted / iron Congrats! Ginger

[Guest guest]

Now when is that baby going to arrive? 9 1/2 moths?

I love molasses on cream of wheat or even oatmeal. I use it in cookies but

not sure you are to eat those

right now.

I will eat it right off the spoon and I've never heard of it in a stir fry

before.

Now you can do this also. Make some couscous and stir some molasses into it

and add a few chopped walnuts and some raisins or dates. It really is good.

Hope I'lve helped you some.

I have to get my iron up quickly - I'm 9 1/2 months pregnant! My

midwife said to use blackstrap molasses as a great source of iron - but the

taste of it by itself is not so pleasant. I tried mixing it in with a stirfry,

and it didn't turn out very well.

 

Does anyone have any recipes that uses a good amount but hides the flavor

somewhat? Or any other ideas of how to get more of it into my diet (or other

iron sources?)

 

Thanks so much!
