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).

- #62626
These cute rice balls make a great appetizer for Asian meals. The recipe calls for brown rice, but substituting in some sushi rice and adding fillings like avocado or smoked salmon gives you a fun variation on standard sushi rolls.

directions
Cook rice in water over medium-high heat until tender and water is absorbed, then cool to room temperature. Cut carrot in 1/2-inch match sticks and steam lightly.

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.
Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.
