What Ingredients Are in Spinach Stuffing Balls?

This appetizer recipe makes the perfect little spinach bites!

Here’s what you’ll need to grab from the grocery store:

• Butter: Melted butter cooled to room temperature.
• Frozen Chopped Spinach: Thawed, drained, and wrung out to remove excess liquid.
• Seasoned Stuffing Mix: Adds flavor and texture to the spinach stuffing balls.
• Shredded Parmesan Cheese: Not powdered, for a cheesy flavor.
• Large Eggs: Beaten, to bind the ingredients together.
• Salt: For seasoning.
• Black Pepper: Adds a bit of spice.
• Onion: Dice a small onion for extra flavor.
• Garlic Powder: Enhances the overall taste.

Pro Tips: 

• For best results, make sure you dry spinach is as much as possible to avoid soggy spinach balls.
• You could also use fresh spinach if desired.
• Use a food processor to quickly chop the spinach if needed.
• In a pinch you could use bread crumbs but we find they get a little soggy. Stuffing mix is best. 
• Make sure to roll them into a little ball. You want them to be bite sizes and not baseball sized. 
• To make gluten-free spinach balls, use gluten free stuffing.

How to Store Spinach Stuffing Balls?

Store leftover little spinach balls in an airtight container in the fridge.

These little guys will last up to 3-4 days.

Reheat them in the oven or microwave before serving.

Careful if you do reheat them to not recook them.

Especially in the microwave! It happens quick!

So reheat in small little batches and just until warmed through.

 

 

Can I Make Spinach Balls Ahead of Time?

Yes, you can make this spinach balls recipe ahead of time.

Prepare the spinach balls as directed, but don’t bake them.

Place them on a baking sheet and freeze until solid.

Transfer to a freezer-safe bag or container and freeze for up to 3 months.

Bake from frozen, adding a few extra minutes to the baking time.

I think this is the best way cause then you don’t have to worry about them going bad in the fridge.

But if you are going to cook them in the next 24 hours, you could always just prepare the mixture.

Then make the balls and cook them when you’re ready to eat them. 

 

 

Do You Serve Spinach Stuffing Balls Hot or Cold?

This delicious appetizer can be served both hot and cold.

They are delicious straight out of the oven or served at room temperature.

So they’re perfect for any occasion! 

Casual get-together or a fancy party? All of the above!

I’ve even had them as a little snack in the afternoon. Or the middle of the night.

You know what? If you’re hungry, that’s a good time to eat them!

 

 

Can You Freeze Spinach Stuffing Balls?

Yes, this original recipe for spinach balls freezes well.

Place the prepared balls on a baking sheet and freeze until solid.

Transfer to a freezer-safe bag or container and freeze for up to 3 months.

Bake from frozen for a quick and easy appetizer.

I prefer to not cook the spinach balls first. 

This way they’re freshest on the day you actually want to eat them.

Do Spinach Stuffing Balls Need to Be Refrigerated?
