Spinach Balls
"I got these off of Allrecipes. I haven't tried them yet but they sound good. I am going to add them to my Christmas buffet. They look like they could be made ahead and frozen, and that would be a big time saver during the Holidays! So with the Holidays coming I thought I would share!"

My sisters and I have been making these for parties for years and serving with a Dijon-style mustard for dipping. Yes,they do freeze well; but my recipe says "2 10-oz packages of spinach," "1 cup of Parmesan" and also calls for 4 small green onions.I'm thinking you can play with proportions. Everyone should try these! -
My family hates anything green but they did really like these yahhh -
These were good, everyone thought they had sausage in them! But followed recipe exactly except used the fresh spinach I had on hand. Cayenne was a good addition, and this would be great dipped in sauce. They stayed good in the fridge and just microwaved them or ate cold. -
Sorry Little Bee, these just didn't work for us. Dh really didn't care for them and I threw out the leftovers. I followed the recipe exactly, but had to add more crushed bread mix and parm cheese because I had trouble forming the balls with the recipe as is as they wouldn't stay together. I rolled them into balls and put them in the freezer and then baked them on a baking stone just before serving. They baked very quickly. Sorry,I won't be making these again, but I really did have high hopes! -
These are a wonderful addition to many meals (I make them a little bigger as a side dish) and make an awesome appetizer too!They're definitely going to be part of my Christmas finger food menu. Try them, Little Bee! You'll like 'em!

I am happily married to my best friend and we just bought our first house! No kids but we have 2 little dogs that we think the world of. I was born in California and although I have been on the East Coast for most of my life I am still displaced! I love the beach and hate the cold! In our free time we love to go to the beach or the mountains and hike or intertube down the lazy Shenendoah River. It is so beautiful there! I have loved to cook all of my life and will read cookbooks like they are novels!
