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).


2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 can (8 ounce size) pineapple tidbits, undrained
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 can (16 ounce size) sliced beets, drained
Mix together the sugar, cornstarch, and salt in a saucepan. Place the pan over medium-high heat. Stir in the undrained pineapple. Cook, stirring frequently, until the sauce has thickened.
Add the butter, lemon juice, and sliced beets. Reduce the heat to medium. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes.
Serve hot.

Love the spinach dip at restaurants like TGIFriday's and the Olive Garden? Make it at home with these easy-to-follow copycat recipes.
Love buffalo wings? Get that same hot, zippy flavor in everything from deviled eggs to enchiladas. And of course: wings.
