Ingredients:

  • 2 large eggs , plus 1 egg
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 cup matzo ball mix (usually both bags out of a box).

Directions:

  1. In a medium bowl whisk the eggs and the oil.
  2. In the bowl of a food processor fitted with a metal blade, process the spinach until puréed. Squeeze the water out of the spinach.
  3. Add the spinach purée into the egg mixture. Whisk to incorporate.
  4. Sprinkle in 1 cup (2 bags) of the matzo ball mix. Stir in with a fork, mixing as little as possible. Don't overwork it. Chill in freezer for 20 minutes.
  5. Meanwhile, bring a pot of water or chicken stock to a boil.
  6. Wet your hands in a bowl of cold water. Using your hand, and manipulating as little as possible, scoop out a ping-pong-ball size of the mixture. Form into a ball with your fingertips, using no real pressure. Bring the water down to a simmer. Drop the balls into the water. Cover the pot and simmer for 20 minutes.
