  1. These are great spinach balls and I love the sauce! My kids, who don't like spinach, really liked these, too. I did make the whole batch and have about half in the freezer to make for a snack. These would be great to serve as an appetizer for company. Thanks, BK.
     
  2. This is almost similar to a recipe I make, I reduce the spinach by half and increased the hot sauce, also I used garlic powder, seasoned salt and lots black pepper, thanks for sharing BK!...Kitten:)
     
  3. I love this recipe. It started off years ago and has become a Christmas favourite made by our friends. Now I make them for special occasions. I use Orgran falafel mix instead of bread crumbs to make mine gluten free and extra tasty. Even men at parties love them with a beer because of this fantastic mustard sauce. I am taking mine to Melbourne Cup Luncheon tomorrow to go with the champas for the races. The horse race that stops the nation here in Australia.
     
  4. This is the best spinach ball recipe out there and the kicker is the French mustard sauce. It's always eaten up every time. I love this recipe! YUM!
     
  5. Love everything about these. All the flavors went so well together. I made the full batch and so glad I did. I used Savory Herb Stuffing Mix and I think that added a lot to the flavors. I over baked mine just a little because of last minute distractions, but they were still good. I had my own Hot Pepper Mustard that I served this with. I'll be making these again BK. Thanks. Made for Zaar Stars Tag Game :)
