The 3rd Day of Christmas

December 28, 2011 By Cynthia Ferich (Goch)

On the third day of Christmas…

Thinking up some appetizers for New Year’s Eve?  Try our Spinach Balls.  We served them on Christmas Eve, and switched them up for our gluten-free friends.  The recipe is taken from “MaMa Mia Cucina”, substituting bread for gluten-free bread.  A healthier fat may also be substituted, such as Earth Balance.

Spinach Balls 

1 package chopped frozen spinach, thawed and squeezed dry

1 medium onion, finely chopped

2 beaten eggs

3/4 cup melted butter

1/4 teaspoon thyme

1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 cup day-old bread cubes, crumbled  (or gluten-free bread cubes, crumbled)

Combine ingredients and chill for at least 1/2 hour.  Form into balls and bake at 350 degrees for 10-15 minutes.  Serve warm, or at room temperature

Great for parties, and can be prepared ahead of time.

ENJOY!
