What food can i eat to help my anemia?

I'm 16, a vegitarian (no seafood, no red meat, no chicken, no pultry) and I'm mildly anemic, and I don't really know what food to eat to make me better. I know that spiniach helps because it's got a lot of iron, but I dunno how to make meals and stuff with lots of iron. I don't like taking suppliments because I can figure out a way to fix it with food by myself.

Eat more food containing Vitamin C. Vitamin C enhances the absorption of iron into your body. This is very helpful if you are a vegetarian. Vegetarians consume less iron because they obtain it from plant sources. Some plants contain chemicals that bind the iron rendering it more easily absorbed. You can also counteract this being eating foods high in calcium with it (calcium binds the chemicals, making iron more easily absorbed into the Blood) You can still obtain iron from vegetables. Foods such as beans, whole grains, spinach, and dried fruits have a significant amount of iron.

Eat a lot of iron rich cereal. Many cereals are fortified with iron. Check the food label on the box and look for iron under the daily values.

You should also avoid drinking tea with your meals that are high in iron. Tea contains tannin that could inhibit the absorption of iron.
