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).

A quick to pull together, this black-eyed pea soup features a mix of canned beans, smoked ham, and onion, making it perfect for a fast dinner any night of the week.

2 cans black eyed peas
1 medium onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, chopped (more to taste if desired)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup smoked ham pieces, chopped into bite size
1 can rotel tomatoes and chiles
1 1/2 cup water
1/2 teaspoon Cavender's Greek seasoning
season to taste with salt and freshly ground pepper
In soup pot, saute onion in olive oil until tender, then add garlic and saute briefly. Add all other ingredients and bring to slow simmer. Cook for 10 minutes.
Great served with french bread!

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.
