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).

ingredients
1 pastry crust for deep dish 9 inch pie (homemade or store bought)
1/2 cup sugar
3 tablespoons flour
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon salt
6 cups apples, peeled and thinly sliced
1/2 cup pecans, chopped
1/4 cup caramel topping
Crumb Topping
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup flour
1/2 cup quick-cooking rolled oats
1/2 cup butter
directions
For Crumb Topping: Stir together brown sugar, flour, rolled oats. Cut in 1/2 cup butter until topping is like course crumbs. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, stir together the sugar, flour, cinnamon and salt. Add apple slices and gently toss until coated. Transfer apple mixture to the pie shell.
Sprinkle crumb topping over apple mixture. Place pie on a cookie sheet so the drippings do not drop into your oven. Cover edges of pie with aluminum foil.
Bake in a preheated 375 degrees F oven for 25 minutes. Then remove foil and put back in for another 25 to 30 minutes without foil. Remove from oven.
Sprinkle pie with chopped pecans, then drizzle caramel on top. Cool on a wire rack and enjoy warm or at room temperature. Serve with whipped cream or ice cream.

Love the spinach dip at restaurants like TGIFriday's and the Olive Garden? Make it at home with these easy-to-follow copycat recipes.
Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.

This pie is awesome. I have people willing to pay me to make it. I used fresh apples from a local orchard (Golden Delicious) and it really does the trick!
