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).
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.

The recipe was easy to follow. I have been wanting to make these, as they were my father's favorite. Everyone I have given these to have raved madly about them and want more! I had NO problem following directions; they were concise and clear. The recipe is SO yummy AND it looks SO pretty in the jars, too! I did add some carrots for color.
