Spinach Balls

Here's another recipe! I posted this picture on my twitter feed, and got a few requests for the recipe, so I'm posting it here. Spinach is one of our favorite leafy greens. We buy it fresh or frozen and use it in a lot of baked dishes, soups, and juices and smoothies.  I think this recipe is pretty simple. Hope you will enjoy!

Ingredients:
2  10-ounce packages of chopped frozen spinach
1  8-ounce container of sour cream (I usually use the lighter version)
1 cup shredded cheese (doesn't really matter which kind, but I like to mix mild cheddar and shredded parmesian)
1 small finely chopped onion (about 1/2 cup)
1 egg
1 teaspoon ground pepper
1/2 packet of dry onion soup mix (the whole package is a bit too salty)
1 container French's fried onions (crushed) or about 1-1/2 cups seasoned bread crumbs.

Instructions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Completely thaw packages of spinach, and squeeze as much excess liquid out as possible
3. Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and stir until well mixed.
4. Use large cookie or ice cream scoop to measure out balls. Roll between hands to form smooth ball.
5. Place balls in baking dish sprayed with cooking spray. Makes about 12.
6. Place on middle rack in oven and cook for about 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
7. Enjoy!
