Spinach Balls
- 16 ounces, weight Bag Pepperidge Farm Crumb Stuffing-Your Choice Of Flavor (I Prefer Herb)
- 8 whole Eggs, Well Beaten
- 4 cups Frozen Spinach, Thawed And Drained
- 1/2 cups Buttermilk Or Plain Yogurt
- 2 Tablespoons Red Pepper Flakes-less If Preferred
- 1/2 cups Grated Parmesan Cheese
- 2 cloves Minced Garlic
- Mix all ingredients in a large mixing bowl, set aside for about fifteen minutes to allow stuffing time to soften, then use your hands or a spatula to mix everything together well.
- Shape into 1 balls and place on a cookie sheet lined with waxed paper.
- At this point, you can either freeze the balls to be baked at a later date, you can chill them in the fridge overnight and bake them just before serving, or you can bake them right away.
- If you freeze them, wait until they are frozen before removing them from the cookie sheet, then you can place them into a gallon-sized Ziploc bag and save them up for to 6 months.
- If you are planning on baking them the next day, you will need to remove the waxed paper before baking.
- Thaw before baking.
- You can bake the chilled balls at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes, until golden brown and heated through.
- Bake room temperature spinach balls at 375 degrees for only 15-18 minutes.
- These are delicious!
- If you dont want to have a large amount, this can be halved easily, but its just as easy to freeze the extras.
- I usually make them just like this, but Ive experimented by adding cooked sausage and they are good like that, too.
- Normally the idea of frozen spinach is disgusting, but this is the one recipe where it beats fresh spinach out.
- Enjoy!
