Ingredients
  • 1/4 c. butter, melted
  • 1 box frozen chopped spinach
  • 1 c. seasoned bread crumbs
  • 1 small onion, minced
  • 1/2 c. Parmesan cheese
  • Salt to taste
  • Black Pepper to taste
  • 3 eggs, beaten

Directions
  1. Defrost the frozen spinach and drain well
  2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees
  3. In a large bowl, combine all ingredients and mix thoroughly
  4. Form the spinach into ping-pong sized balls and place on a greased baking sheet
  5. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until the tops start to brown
  6. ***NOTE
  7. Depending on how big you form the balls, this will yield around 12-15
  8. You can prepare your balls and freeze, just increase the cooking time to 20 minutes at 350
  9. I find that using my hands is the easiest way to make sure the ingredients get thoroughly mixed.
  10. When forming the balls, keep your hands slightly wet with tap water. This helps keep the mixture from sticking too much
  11. You can easily multiply this recipe to make as many servings as desired

I've definitely got to try this.


This looks simple and delicious. I like the idea of preparing and freezing to have on hand. Something to do while kids are doing homework to keep the freezer stocked. Do you suggest a sauce to dip in?


Ive got a recipe almost identical to this.. great minds think alike...


Spinnach, my favorite vegetable. Nuff said. Well, and asparagus too.


This sounds great...I'd have to cook down my own fresh, as I don't ever use frozen, but this is getting saved...so, it's 6 months after submission, but it comin' from a Steeler fan is just that much better! ;) Thank you!
