nice friend:
Hi sharmin ,
you may also try spinach , it came in many forms and one of the easy formm is "canned spinach"  .. it has alot of iron  .. i think you may give her by putting in Salad ... its a good source of iron as i continously hearing that to a long time  .... its called " SAAG "  here in south Asia .... its a green vegetable and i heard that green vegetables alway have more iron than other vegetables ... here is a little about spinach ...

Sharmin:
you're too funny Umair  :rotfl

also, saag is high in iron and tastes REALLY good - so we don't want a new epidemic - iron overload from eating saag!  :rotfl :rotfl

nice friend:
not that much high too create some new complications ...
its not that much high iron diet but if she need some iron pills, she can try saag instead of pills ( i think ,, but ot sure ) ..  there are alot of v recipes of saag on sites i sent  ..... its good for her  :) but not for me :( ......  :grin
