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).

I would never have thought to cook perch this way. Glad I found the recipe because my wife who claims to not care much for perch loved it. We will definitely be making this again.
