Frozen vegetables are not only a great convenience, but surprisingly nutritious. In many cases, they retain more of their natural nutrients than fresh vegetables in the produce section, due to the rapid loss of nutrient value at room temperature once a vegetable is picked. One problem though, is that frozen vegetables are sometimes a pain in the neck to work with because they freeze into a solid rock. One easy (and emotionally therapeutic) solution to petrified veggies is to slam the sealed packet against the floor, refrigerator door, local congressman's head, or any other flat, hard surface to unstick the vegetables from one another.
