Recipes to Try: Spinach

Being home for the weekend allowed me to stock up on some healthier options in bulk (my parents always seem to send me with more than I come home with, not that I am complaining). So here I am in my apartment trying to figure out what to do with two bags of spinach before it goes bad. & yes, I have already froze a lot, not that I know what to do with it then. But, here are some of the recipes I have tried today!!

Spinach Smoothie

Handfull of spinach

Half an apple

Tablespoon of peanut butter

Two strawberries

Vanilla yogurt

Dash of chocolate sauce

Water

Directions: Blend together with ice

Spinach Salad

Spinach

Iceberg lettuce

Walnuts

Strawberries

Goat cheese

Raspberry walnut dressing

Directions: toss and enjoy!

Sautéed Spinach with Pasta

Spinach

Olive Oil

Garlic

Salt and pepper for seasoning

Pasta

Directions: heat olive oil and garlic together, add spinach and cook for three minutes or until wilted, mix in with the pasta of your choice

So it looks like I'll be on a heavy spinach diet for this week. Hopefully I can find more recipes to add some variety! Enjoy
