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 was really a great way to dress up rice. This will also work with brown rice and even instant rice. If you don't have fresh tomatoes on hand you can use canned, diced tomatoes - just drain them really well (and even rinse them gently). Fresh is best, but canned will work in a bind.
