Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 (10-oz) pkg frozen chopped spinach
2 cups herb-seasoned stuffing mix (i use pepperidge farm, and i usually increase it to 3 cups)
1 medium onion, finely chopped
6 large eggs, well beaten
3/4 cup melted butter
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
1 tsp black pepper
1 Tbsp garlic salt
1/2 tsp thyme leaves

Steps:

  • 1. Cook spinach according to package directions. Place cooked spinach in colander to cool and drain well. (You want as much liquid as possible removed from spinach.)
  • 2. Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a large baking sheet (I use my 15"x10" jelly roll pan); set aside.
  • 3. In a large mixing bowl, mix all ingredients in the order listed. Roll small amounts into 1-inch balls (about the size of a walnut). Place spinach balls on the baking sheet, about 1 inch apart.
  • 4. Bake for 20 minutes, or just slightly turning brown around edges. Transfer to a counter to cool completely.
