    NOTES : To use half a package of the frozen spinach, place the unwrapped spinach in a microwave-safe dish and cook on 30% power (medium-low) for 2 to 4 minutes or just till soft enough to cut in half with a sharp knife. Rewrap one half and return to freezer. Continue to cook the remaining half on 30% power for 3 to 5 minutes more or till thawed.
