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).
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.

The pimento cheese portion of the recipe is a pretty standard one so if you have your own favorite you should be able to easily adapt it to this recipe. Very good flavor and the mixture piped nicely into the egg whites.
