A nice change from a plain potato side dish. Another idea is, to add in a can of drained salmon or tuna & omit the nutmeg.

Ingredients
  • 4 Idaho Potatoes, peeled, boiled and mashed
  • 1 10-oz package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 tsp. nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp. paprika

  • lemon juice

Directions
  1. Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray.

  3. Using a melon baller or ice cream scoop, form the potato mixture into balls. Roll balls in flour to coat and place on baking sheet. Refrigerate for 20 minutes before baking.

Wait a minute, I looked at the recipe before your post. You still get five forks, but I will not omit paprika for anybody.


Yummers - another high 5 dish! Thanks and have a great day!

It sounds great.
Just one question!
Where's the salmon in these Potato, Spinach, Cheese, Salmon Balls? In your description you mention that you can add tuna or salmon & omit nutmeg.
So, I guess we could add 1 salmon or tuna steak, run through a food processor & let it cook for the 20 mins. all the other ingredients cook.
it sounds Yummy
5 for your dish.
