In honor of Manatee’s birthday today, I thought I would share with you his favorite food and one of our key kitchen staples.
This is the one food that if we don’t have it, we immediately get in the car and drive to the store. It’s not just for Popeye, kids. It’s also for Manatees and Badger Girls.
We cannot go one day without our spinach. Every dinner is either accompanied with a spinach salad…
Or dinner is served on top of spinach. This works especially well for pasta or anything that has a sauce associated with it. That way, you don’t need any dressing!
We toss it with lemon juice and throw it on top of pizza. We will also put it into the sauce as it is simmering to give it more nutrients and that rich, green flavor.
Sometimes Manatee eats it right out of the bag.
What’s your favorite thing to do with spinach?
I had to stop by when I saw your name. Is a Badger Girl, and WI Badger fan? Grew up outside of Madison, so Badger anything catches my eye!
I love spinach salads. My husband loves it cooked and sauted in garlic. So I try to make it like that for him once in awhile but I am not a big fan of it cooked.

I have had it cooked before- it’s not bad, but I love it way too much raw to have the patience to cook it. 🙂
