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).

The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.

I found this recipe to be absolutely delicious. I had never added cinnamon to meat before, and I must say that I was impressed. It was sensational. I had all of the ingredients except olives. So, I had to leave them out. The dish was still wonderful. While hard to think it could have been better, I can't wait to try it again with the olives.

While this Cinnamon Beef recipe was cooking it made my mouth water. I love the bold sweet flavor. The raisins compliment the spices perfectly. I found the recipe easy to make and I don't consider myself much of a cook. If you don't have couscous I think you could easily put the meat dish on top of noodles or maybe rice. The leftovers are just as good as the main course too!
