Eat More Whole Grains

Bulgur is wheat berries that have been steamed, dried, and then cracked. Whole grains such as bulgur are good non-meat sources of iron, and the vitamin C in this recipe from orange juice and lime juice helps that iron to be better absorbed. The black beans that are mixed in with the bulgur also provide iron and protein.
