SPINACH BALLS

I got this recipe from my mother-in-law, who says these were my veggie-hating husband's favorite childhood snack. They are a great way to get kids to eat spinach!! Prep time includes chill time. This can be a little salty depending on the butter, cheese and bread crumbs you use, if you are concerned about saltiness use unsalted butter and garlic powder in place of the garlic salt. I have also made these with only 1/2 cup of melted butter (1 stick) and they are just as good but you need to spray the cookie sheet because they will stick.

STOVE TOP SPINACH BALLS



Stove Top Spinach Balls image

I made these for my family's Christmas party. My family really liked these. We thought they tasted so good. I think they are best when served warm from the oven. When I made this recipe I tried to half the recipe which didn't work out so well. I cut the recipe in half but ended up adding the entire packet of stuffing. I also used canned mushrooms instead of fresh. I got this recipe from Kraft.
