Spinach Balls

Spinach Balls are my favorite appetizer for holiday dinners. So, whose to say I can't have them all year round? These are soo easy to make and really easy to reheat for an afternoon (or late night) snack!


You will need:
1 bag of fresh spinach
2 eggs
a few tablespoons of chopped onions- if desired
one clove minced garlic
1/2 cup of butter
about a cup of  Parmesan cheese- you can add more or less how you would like
1 1/2 cups of bread crumbs- like with cheese, you can add more

Spinach Balls before baking
-Preset oven to 350 degrees
-Begin roughly chopping spinach (you can also use a package of frozen spinach but I like using the fresh kind, if you use frozen spinach you must make sure all water has been drained from the thawed spinach.)
-throw spinach in a mixing bowl and you can add all ingredients at once. (Before adding the egg u might want to whisk it a little)
- once mixture is holding together you can roll pieces in between your palms like if it were a meatball
-bake spinach balls for 20-25 minutes, they should be a little browned on the top.

Enjoy :)
