This has been a busy week for me not to mention that we had scorching hot and humid weather with extreme weather alerts throughout the city. I tried not to use my oven due to the humidity and heat but i had this recipe laying aroud which I've been meaning to try so I cranked up the A/C and started to bake these. Hey..........it was only about 1/2 hour so it wasn't too bad with the oven turned on.
I got this recipe off a fellow Blogger that goes by the name of ChefBeck that I'm on this foodie board...........
Awesome Spinach Balls
Adapted from a Susan Branch Cookbook
2 [10 oz.] pkgs. frozen chopped spinach
4 eggs beaten
2 cups herb stuffing mix
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, freshly grated
1 garlic clove, minced
1 small onion, minced
1 tsp. dry thyme, crushed
3/4 cup butter, melted
salt and pepper to taste
Ready to be baked.........
Cook spinach according to package, drain and squeeze very dry.Mix all the ingredients well and chill for 2 hours.
Roll into 1" balls.
Put on cookie sheet and bake at preheated oven 325 deg F. for 25-30 min. till browing edges.
They are great warm and room temperature.
Before baking you can freeze on cookie sheet, then store in plastic bags. Thaw before baking.
These are great as appetizers.........which maybe served with a dip. As you can see I just made them for my Family, and my husband was dipping his into Tzatziki, he said it kind of reminded him of Spanakopita.
But on a nice decorative platter with maybe some cherry tomtoes stuffed inter/mixed just to add colour would be nice............. or even I read someone mentioned they were using a Marinara sauce for dipping. the choice is yours but they are addicting.
