What is this herb/plant called in English?

My husband loves for me to use the herb/plant, Epasote when cooking. It is used a lot in Hidalgo, Mexico where he is from. The only thing is the epasote comes from our garden, not from the store and we are gonna move. I would like to buy some seeds to grow this plant in at my new home, but I don't know what it is in English. Can anyone tell me what Epasote or Hepasote is in English?

If what this post says is true, you may be able to dig it up, take some with you, and replant. ...but it does not give the name in English.
Lambsquarter is what it's called up here. It's considered a weed where I live, but has medicinal value as well as your own use as an herb with beans.
