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).

These elevated baked beans take the classic Boston recipe with mustard and molasses and add a twist of teriyaki for a bit of Asian flair.

3 tablespoons lite teriyaki sauce
3 tablespoons molasses
2 tablespoons brown sugar, packed
1/2 teaspoon dried minced onion
1/4 teaspoon dry mustard
1 can (31 ounce size) pork and beans
1/8 teaspoon liquid smoke
Combine the teriyaki sauce, molasses, brown sugar, onion, mustard, and beans in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Stir gently then let the mixture come to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and let cook, uncovered, for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Stir in the liquid smoke then serve the beans.

Love the spinach dip at restaurants like TGIFriday's and the Olive Garden? Make it at home with these easy-to-follow copycat recipes.
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.
