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).

Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.

This is a fantastic recipe and I have made it several times. The only thing I change is that I use halved cherry tomatoes. Thanks for this great meal idea!

WOW - this was a great dinner! Even my 2 and 5 year old liked it! It could be made with other meat than crab... I am not a very good cook and this was surprisingly good! The only thing I would tell other cooks - have your ingredients ready before you start (rather than scrambling as I did). Enjoy!

We varied this recipe by using lemon pappardelle instead of angel hair pasta, eliminating the lemon juice, reducing the pasta to eight ounces and the crab meat to twelve ounces, reducing the butter to one tablespoon, including a tablespoon or so of eggplant-red pepper puree in the sauteed crabmeat, and replacing the parsley with cilantro. Voila! This is an easy and elegant main or side dish, which we enjoyed with spinach-and-gorgonzola and the remaining citrus-accented white wine.
