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.

going to try for this Thanksgiving but not sure how to slice the celery can you advise?
Just slice it crosswise into about 1/2-inch slices.
