We’ve all been there: you buy a giant bag of spinach with the intention of making a few salads for the week only to find it half-wilted in the fridge two weeks later.
Never. Again. Whether you’re a spinach lover or are just trying to get more greens into your meals, I have over 40 delicious, easy spinach recipes that are the perfect way to use up a fresh bag before the wilting phase.
Is a bag of spinach exciting on its own? Uh, no. That’s why I like to sneak it into smoothies, hearty soups, cozy pasta dishes, and your favorite comfort foods in a way that’s approachable and absolutely delicious.
I even have a couple of muffin recipes with spinach baked right into them (hello, perfect kiddo snack!)
These wonderful recipes using spinach are anything but boring. We’re talkin’ bold flavors and amazing ingredient combos that will actually make you excited for leftovers. There’s a spinach recipe for everyone in here, so take a scroll and enjoy!
