Default Growing your own to save

we definitely save with spinach-a bag of baby spinach for salads is
$2.50 and has an expiration date, unlike fresh-picked as you need it-so
easy to grow.

i turned my mom on to spinach salads-she had never had one. use wishbone
raspberry or cranberry salad dressing, add pecans and feta cheese mmmm!

i grew up forced to eat cooked spinach which i detest and was greatly
surprised as an adult to learn there are methods of prep for vegetables
like spinach, broccoli, and cauliflower other than cooking the hell out
of them :-)
