Spinach lasagna. I kept it pretty simple with tofu ricotta, basil marinara, fresh spinach, and a sprinkle of nooch (nutritional yeast) on top. With it I served more spinach sauteed with olive oil, garlic, and red pepper flakes.
A clean-out-the-pantry hash comprised of sweet potatoes, kale, red bell pepper, onion, and frozen corn, served with herbed grits
As I was whipping up a batch of hummus and wondering what I was going to do with the last few handfuls of baby spinach in the fridge, the idea became so obvious: spinach hummus. I threw the spinach in raw and it could barely be tasted (not that I would have minded the flavor anyway) but lent tons of nutrients and color.I also recently made gomen using collard greens, but when I make Ethiopian food the results are rarely photogenic, though delicious nonetheless.
Now that we've covered all that healthy stuff, how's about some cookies, eh?

Spinach hummus! I wonder why that's not more common...
That hash may have been thrown together, but I want to stick my face in it. :) haha
Yum, free spinach? Awesome! And those cookies look like just what I need right now!
I want to eat all of those things, especially the hummus. I love throwing spinach in random things, especially since it doesn't really have a taste. I think my favorite has been mashed potatoes, but I jumped on the green oatmeal bandwagon and it was pretty awesome, as well.
free greens - lucky you!! i'm loving spinach this week, normally i hate it raw but I've been enjoying it in salads!
that lasagna looks so good.
You can never eat too many greens! I eat a lot of greens, especially spinach and kale! I like the sound of spinach hummus, I'm going to try that next time I make hummus.
That all looks good! What recipe did you use for the chocolate chip cookies?
Yasmin - the chocolate chip cookie recipe is my own that I've been using forever. One of these days I'll get around to posting it on the blog.
