Spinach Balls

Description: I got this recipe from my mother-in-law, who says these were my veggie-hating husband's favorite childhood snack. They are a great way to get kids to eat spinach!! Prep time includes chill time. This can be a little salty depending on the butter, cheese and bread crumbs you use, if you are concerned about saltiness use unsalted butter and garlic powder in place of the garlic salt. I have also made these with only 1/2 cup of melted butter (1 stick) and they are just as good but you need to spray the cookie sheet because they will stick.

Ingredients:

• 2 (10 ounce) boxes frozen spinach, drained well
• 3/4 cup melted unsalted butter
• 1 medium onion, finely chopped
• 4 eggs
• 1/2 cup fresh grated parmesan cheese
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper
• 2 cups seasoned bread crumbs

Steps:

1. In a large bowl, combine all ingredients until well mixed.
2. Roll into 2 inch, walnut-sized balls.
3. Chill in the refrigerator for 2 hours.
4. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake at 350ºF for 20 minutes.
