Once Upon a Wildtree

Baked Spinich Balls with Garlic Lemon Dipping Sauce

Ingredients

½ tablespoon Wildtree Natural Grapeseed Oil

10 ounces fresh baby spinach
½ cup panko bread crumbs
pinch nutmeg
½ tablespoon Wildtree Garlic Galore Seasoning Blend
¼ cup shredded Parmesan cheese
1 egg, beaten

Dipping Sauce:
3 tablespoons mayo
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon Wildtree Garlic Galore Seasoning Blend

Method of Preparation

Preheat oven to 375°F. Heat the Grapeseed Oil over medium heat in a large nonstick pan. Add the spinach and sauté until wilted. Transfer to a mixing bowl. Once cool enough to handle, remove the liquid from the spinach by squeezing it with your hands. Work in small batches to do this. Once all the liquid has been removed, chop the spinach. Add the spinach back into the mixing bowl along with the bread crumbs, nutmeg, Garlic Galore, and Parmesan cheese. Toss to combine. Add the beaten egg and toss again. Shape the mixture into 12 balls and place on a greased baking sheet. Bake for 10 minutes, flip and continue cooking for 5 minutes more. While the spinach balls are baking stir together the ingredients for the dipping sauce. Serve with the finished spinach balls
