Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups sage and onion or herb-seasoned bread stuffing mix
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 clove garlic, minced or pressed
  • ¼ teaspoon dried thyme leaves
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ cup fat-free reduced-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and well drained
  • 2 egg whites, beaten
  • Dijon or honey mustard  (optional)

Equipment

  • 1 medium bowl
  • 1 separate bowl
  • 1 baking sheet

Method
 

  1. Combine the stuffing mix, onion, cheese, garlic, thyme and pepper in medium bowl and mix well. Combine the spinach, broth and egg whites in separate bowl, and mix those well also. Stir the spinach mixture into the stuffing mixture, cover and refrigerate 1 hour (or until the mixture is firm).
  2. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Shape the mixture into 24 balls (about the size of a golf ball). 
  3. Place the spinach balls on an ungreased baking sheet, and bake them for 15 minutes (or until they are lightly browned). Serve with mustard for dipping, if desired.

Notes

For a cheesy twist, add a handful of grated Parmesan or feta cheese to the spinach mixture. The cheese will enhance the flavor and provide a delightful gooeyness. Trust me, it's a game-changer!
