These are wonderful appetizers. My guests rave about them and they disappear fast! You can use prepared breadcrumbs but they don't taste as good as with the homemade ones. Ingredients:
2 (10 ounce) packages frozen chopped spinach (thawed & drained - squeeze out all the moisture) |
6 slices white bread, lightly toasted a golden brown |
2 eggs, beaten |
1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup margarine, melted |
1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese |
1/4 cup grated romano cheese |
1/4 cup grated asiago cheese |
1 teaspoon dried thyme |
2 cloves garlic, minced |
8 shallots, minced |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper |
Directions:
1. Place toast in a blender or food processor and blend until finely crumbed.
2. Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and chill for at least three hours or overnight.
3. Form into balls and place on a greased cookie sheet.
4. Balls can be covered and refrigerated at this point for up to twelve hours.
5. Bake at 400 degrees for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
