Do you love a good home cooked garden meal? My husband and I grow a pretty big garden and we do some canning and freezing every year. This year I am trying to be more intentional about using what I grow. So, to help me I came up with 5 Ways to use Garden Fresh Spinach.
Here’s a picture of my harvested spinach.
If you don’t have fresh spinach from your garden you can buy it at your farmers market or Sam’s, the grocery store, etc. Fresh spinach is readily available now days.
One of my favorite ways to use my fresh spinach is to put it into a smoothie.
Roasted Garlic & Spinach White Pizza
I am really enjoying out of the ordinary pizza’s lately. My favorite has been the caprese pizza I shared here, but I this pizza looks REALLY GOOD as well.
Spinach Dip
I LOVE spinach dip, especially with pumpernickel bread. Yum! I’m excited to try this.
Spinach & Watermelon Salad
This looks really good! I’ve not tried watermelon with spinach but I’d love to give it a try.
Spinach Lasagna Roll Ups
These Spinach Lasagna Roll ups look really good and healthy.
I’m also including some tips on “How to Freeze Spinach” as well.
Now I have some yummy spinach recipes to use my garden fresh spinach with. Just a note, spinach likes cold weather so you could plant a row or two in the fall so keep that in mind if you want more garden fresh spinach.

Oh! Yummy! Hubby and I are planning our first veggie garden for this coming summer! I'm totally planting spinach because we love it! Thanks for sharing these ideas!
Awesome Shana!! Enjoy. Thanks for stopping by. Have a great day.
I can't wait until I can plant a fall crop of spinach! It was so delicious early this spring but with our sudden heat, it bolted quickly. I have never put spinach in a smoothie, but i'm going to try it soon!
Jane, we had the same thing happen and I'm looking forward to replanting as well. But for now my kale and swiss chard is going crazy so I'll use those in my smoothe.
