    Can you re-freeze spinach?? I live by myself and would like to try frozen spinach in eggs, was thinking of thawing out a brick of spinach, cutting it into individual portions, and then refreezing to make it easier to add to eggs. Has anyone done this?

    FWIW, Whole Foods sells frozen spinach in a bag rather than frozen solid in a block--you can pull out as little or as much as you need. Didn't really pay attention to the price as the convenience is worth it to me.

    Spinach is great! I eat about 2-3 cups of it raw per day. I munch on it like some people would munch on chips or crackers. Also, if you're keto or low-carb, creamed spinach is fabulous!

    Here's a link to a creamed spinach recipe from Caveman Keto:

    Whir it in the food processor with eggs, salt and pepper, and parmesan and bake for a spinach souffle.

    Mix with lots of grated cheese and an egg to hold it together and make an ersatz pizza.

    Whir it with an egg and use it to make a moister meatloaf or turkey meat balls.

    Cream it and make it luxurious.

    Julienne and throw it in with the pasta as you sauce it.

    SO I figured out a new fantastic meal addiiton. At only 7 calories per cup: IT IS SPINACH.
    I like spinach a lot. Sometimes I cook it but usually not.

    Yay spinach! We grow organic spinach in our garden and we will literally just pick leaves off and munch on them while we are out there gardening.
