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).


This is a simple yet delicious dish. Perfect for a weeknight meal, it can be on the table in under 30 minutes. The shrimp are cooked in a chunky tomato-garlic sauce and served over rice.


1 pound medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
5 cloves garlic, minced
1 can (14.5 ounce size) whole peeled tomatoes, cut up
1/2 cup picante sauce
2 teaspoons chili powder
4 cups hot cooked regular long-grain white rice
Place the shrimp in a shallow nonmetallic dish. Toss the shrimp with the lime juice to coat.
Heat the oil in a 10-inch skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook until it's tender. Add the tomatoes, picante sauce and chili powder and heat to a boil. Reduce the heat to low. Cover and cook for 10 minutes. Add the shrimp mixture to the skillet. Cook for 5 minutes or until the shrimp turn pink. Serve over the rice.

Beer makes batters better, meat more tender, and sauces more flavorful.
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.
