It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).

Light and refreshing, this smoothie is a combination of fresh strawberries, orange juice, and plain low-fat yogurt.

1 pint fresh strawberries
1/2 cup orange juice
6 ounces unflavored low-fat yogurt
4 ice cubes
Remove the stems from the strawberries and place the strawberries in a blender. Add the orange juice, yogurt, and ice cubes.
Process on high speed until smooth. Pour into glasses and serve immediately.

Keeping a can of frozen orange juice concentrate in the freezer means you can make more than just orange juice. Try it in a variety of orange-flavored recipes.
Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.

I loved the light flavor of this smoothie. It's just the right blend of strawberry and orange. The yogurt keeps it from being too sweet (you could use a vanilla or other flavored yogurt if you want it sweeter).
