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).
What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!

Made 1st time for guests. They loved it as did we. Probably will always use this recipe for mac salad. I had to make two copies of recipe for my guests to take home!

EXCELLENT! Great twist to a summer cook out staple. I myself am not a mayo fan, so I decreased the portion ever so slightly. This will become my standard/signature macaroni salad. Thanks for sharing.
