Tip

Keep Onion Handy

I keep a peeled onion in a glass jar in my refrigerator. It’s handy when I need a small amount of chopped onion for a recipe or my husband wants a slice of onion on his hamburger. It stays fresh in the jar, eliminating waste. —Dorothy G., Tewksbury, Massachusetts

My husband and I thought it was okay and all my kids hated it so I won't be fixing this again.

Definite addition to our personal cookbook! We love fresh spinach, and always looking for new ways to incorporate in a side dish.
