Ingredients

• 10 ounces Frozen chopped spinach
• 1 cup Breadcrumbs
• 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 large Eggs
• 3 tablespoons Butter, melted
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.

Step 2

Thaw the frozen chopped spinach completely. Squeeze out as much excess water as possible using a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the drained spinach, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, eggs, melted butter, parsley, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly until well combined.

Step 4

Using your hands, form the mixture into small balls, about 1 to 1.5 inches in diameter, and place them on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 5

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the spinach balls are firm and lightly browned on the outside.

Step 6

Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. Serve warm as an appetizer, snack, or side dish. Optionally, pair with a dipping sauce like marinara or a yogurt-based sauce.
