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).

My family has been making this recipe for years since finding it in The Junior League of New Orleans cookbook in the early 1970s. It's at home as an entree at a formal dinner, or as comfort food when you just 'get the taste'. For me, it's a mess to make, but well worth the effort. The recipe is pretty much perfect as submitted. I would suggest that firm, fresh tomatoes are the heart of the recipe, so shop accordingly. I will also use more black olives than the recipe calls for, and have substituted chopped yellow onions for the minced green when I didn't feel like driving to the grocery. It's a recipe worth trying if your looking for something other than the traditional meat and potatoes meals. Serve hot with a fresh salad and enjoy.
