Spinach Balls

Easy to make, small bite-size appetizers of spinach and cheese. Delicious when paired with marinara for dipping.
Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Total Time 35 minutes
Servings 60 servings

Ingredients

  • 2 10 oz packages of frozen spinach, thawed and well-drained
  • 2 small onions, very finely chopped
  • cup stuffing with herbs
  • 6 eggs beaten
  • ½ cup Parmesan Cheese
  • ½ cup melted butter
  • 2 tsp garlic salt
  • 1 tsp cracked black pepper

Instructions

  • Mix all ingredients until well combined
  • Form into 1 inch balls
  • Place on baking sheet sprayed with cooking spray. I line with parchment or a silicon pad
  • Bake at 350° for 20 minutes and balls are browned slightly.

Notes

Spinach balls may be frozen, either baked or unbaked.  I freeze them unbaked.  Freeze in single layer and then transfer to container.
For pre-baked balls:  Remove from freezer about 30 minutes prior to reheating.  Reheat in a 350 degree oven for about 10 minutes.
For unbaked balls:  Remove from freezer about 30 minutes before cooking.  Bake as directed (350 for 20 minutes).
Can serve with dipping sauce - I use a pre-made chunky marinara sauce.
