Spinach Balls

Sometimes getting the kiddos to eat anything can be a real challenge. And then I found spinach balls. I don't know if it's their bite size appeal or what, but the kiddos devour spinach balls whenever I make them. I tend to make them as an appetizer or for a party, but they can also be eaten as a side for dinner or can replace traditional meatballs in a spaghetti dinner. All I know is they are a hit in our house and very budget friendly. Not to mention sneaking in some vegetables to their diets without too much of a fuss.

Ingredients:
2 10 oz. packages of frozen chopped spinach
1 box of stuffing mix
1 cup of freshly grated parmesan cheese
6 eggs
1 cup butter

Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350F. Melt butter in microwave. Lightly whisk eggs. Defrost spinach and drain excess water. I like to press the spinach with a paper towel in the colander. Combine all ingredients until well incorporated and the stuffing mix is moist. Using your hands, form small balls and place on a cookie sheet. Bake for 7-10 minutes. Allow to cool slightly, but best served warm. When an appetizer, serve with onion dip. Watch the kiddos gobble them up.
