Not to be confused with Schweddy Balls. These are very different. And so good. We switched up Friendsgiving this year to be a mix of appetizers, drinks, and desserts, instead of a traditional sit-down turkey dinner.
I was looking for a warm appetizer to balance out the offerings. A friend of mine gave me her recipe a couple years ago and Friendsgiving seemed like the perfect time to give these another whirl. These babies are loaded with flavor, can be made gluten free, and are generally a crowd-pleaser. What's not to love?!
Laura's Spinach Balls
2-10 oz.
pkgs. chopped frozen spinach
2 c. Chef Jeff Gluten Free Seasoned Panko flakes (from Whole Foods)
1 onion,
finely chopped
6 beaten
eggs
3/4 c.
butter or margarine
1 c.
parmesan cheese
1 tbsp.
garlic powder or salt (adjust to taste)
1/2 tsp.
thyme
2 tsp.
pepper
Thaw spinach,
squeeze dry (with paper towels). Mix all ingredients together.
Form balls and freeze on cookie sheet. Place in plastic bag
when frozen. Bake frozen about 20 minutes (flip halfway through) at 350 degrees. Makes 80
to 90 one inchballs.
If you aren't concerned about gluten, you can use any kind of bread crumbs. Stick a toothpick in each one and serve warm.
Enjoy!
