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).
Pizza night is always a favorite, especially when you have great tasting pizza from some of the most popular restaurants.

The directions for this recipe were extremely easy to follow and I loved having a vegetarian alternative for my guests. The only thing I'd do differently is double the cheese mixture. It's a bit sticky and therefore difficult to spread evenly.
