I wanted to make spinach curry, but I blended it too much and it became a paste. This sauce is vegetarian.

If you're not vegetarian or on a restricted sugar diet, then switch the vegetable bouillon to chicken stock granules. Using soy milk instead of water will make this sauce richer. Recipe by matsno

Raw Spinach Pasta Raw Spinach Pasta

I made this because I searched for a recipe that I liked and I couldn't find one. You can make this recipe easily since there aren't any unusual ingredients or any overly complicated steps.Feel free to boil the spinach in water. The reason I mix the pepper with flour is because it goes well with a tuna and white sauce. However, if you want to use a different sauce, adjust the ingredients as necessary. Recipe by Pichito

This dish is perfect for breakfast, lunch or dinner.I love spinach. The first time I made this because I was given a bunch of free spinach from a grocery store tossing it out. The amount of flour may be adjusted next time I make it. It may need a little more. I may toss in a few mushrooms next time. If 2 pies are too many, you can freeze one for another time. The spices are optional. I'm Cajun so everything must have some spice!

My wife did a research paper on the benefits of spinach and we cooked this as an example of how to use spinach for people who don't like the typical way of steaming or boiling it. We loved it and cook it often now.

Ever since I ate spinach dip, it has become one of my go-to recipes.Spinach and artichokes make for a deliciously nutritious combination.It's great as a drinking snack!!If you have leftover dip, you can spread some on a slice of sandwich bread, and toast it in the oven for a quick, delicious treat!It's a suggestion that I got from a friend. The leftovers are just as scrumptious ! Recipe by Guutara recipe kenkyujo

Seasoned Spinach and Ground Meat Seasoned Spinach and Ground Meat

I had a lot of spinach lying around so I simply sautéed it with other ingredients and it turned out pretty tasty.If you find the gaminess of pork too distinctive, I recommend using chicken instead.I made a large portion, so I made a quiche with egg mixture from this recipe for easy quiche with spinach and bacon. I highly recommend it!This dish is great for expectant mothers because it has a lot of iron and is also low in calories! For 4 servings. Recipe by Chuutoramo-

Rich Spinach Potage Rich Spinach Potage

I make this soup a lot. It's perfect for when you have too much spinach.Don't let the onions brown or they will alter the color of the finished soup.It's better to blanch the spinach since it is somewhat bitter. However, after blanching some of the nutrients will be lost in the water, so don't squeeze it out before adding it to the blender. You need some water to purée it anyway, so it's perfect – two birds with one stone. Recipe by Peni-da
