A Spinach of Many Talents
Spinach is one of the most versatile leafy greens you’ll ever encounter. Beyond the conventional role of spinach in things like salads or sauteed side dishes, there are plenty of innovative culinary uses that allow it to shine. For example, incorporating spinach into omelets or basic scrambled eggs adds a pop of color and a pleasantly earthy taste.
How about using baby spinach as a stuffing for proteins like chicken breasts or fish filets? The leaves can be seasoned and rolled into the protein, contributing additional moisture and a burst of green goodness that deepens the flavor. You can also add finely chopped baby spinach into pasta sauces or risotto to provide vibrant color and an extra layer of nutrients. And let’s not forget dips—spinach is a crucial part of a classic spinach & artichoke dip. Learn more about this nutrient-rich green on the Spinach Vegetable Facts page!
