Spinach Balls by Sarah Carlston

This is a great way to get your kids to eat spinach. My kids actually beg me to make these!

16oz of frozen chopped spinach
2 cups of bread crumbs
1 small onion chopped
4 eggs
3/4 cup melted butter
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese (if I dont have parmesan, I add cheddar instead)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cook the spinach (I just put it in the microwave with out water and put a cover on it. Mix the rest of the ingredients and add to the spinach. Scoop into balls (it will be a little runny) onto a baking sheet (I do a little bigger than a TB spoon).

Bake for 20 minutes

Some things I did different from the recipe......

I added salt(appx. 1tsp) and some worcheshire sauce(appx. 1-2tsp)to taste
sometimes I add a little ground sage
