STOVE TOP SPINACH BALLS



Stove Top Spinach Balls image

I made these for my family's Christmas party. My family really liked these. We thought they tasted so good. I think they are best when served warm from the oven. When I made this recipe I tried to half the recipe which didn't work out so well. I cut the recipe in half but ended up adding the entire packet of stuffing. I also used canned mushrooms instead of fresh. I got this recipe from Kraft.

Nutrition Facts :

Tips:

  • Fresh is best: For the best flavor and texture, use fresh baby spinach. If you don't have fresh spinach on hand, you can use frozen spinach, but be sure to thaw it and squeeze out all the excess moisture before using.
  • Don't overcook the spinach: Spinach cooks quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Otherwise, it will become mushy and lose its vibrant color.
  • Use a variety of cheeses: This recipe calls for Parmesan and ricotta cheeses, but you can use any type of cheese that you like. Some other good options include mozzarella, cheddar, feta, or goat cheese.
  • Season to taste: Be sure to season the spinach balls with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. You can also add other spices or herbs, such as Italian seasoning, red pepper flakes, or paprika.
  • Serve immediately: Spinach balls are best served hot and fresh out of the oven. However, they can also be made ahead of time and reheated in the oven or microwave.

Conclusion:

Spinach balls are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. They are perfect for parties, potlucks, or game day gatherings. With their crispy outer coating and creamy, cheesy interior, spinach balls are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a tasty and crowd-pleasing appetizer, give this spinach ball recipe a try.
