    Calories and Fat per ball??? I think these look so good!!!

    Per ball:

    Calories: 33.0
    Total Fat: 2.1 g
    Cholesterol: 23.7 mg
    Sodium: 73.2 mg
    Total Carbs: 0.7 g
    Dietary Fiber: 0.2 g
    Protein: 1.6 g

    That's pretty good sodium considering the parmesan. I don't like my balls too salty.

    we make these a lot and store them in ziplock bags in the freezer ... great for quick snacks and light meals! just reheat in the toaster oven ...

    we also use fresh chopped baby spinach instead of the the frozen ... VERY tasty!!

    butter.....cheese....stuffing?!?!

    THIS is a recipe i can get behind!

    my mom does something similar to this and stuffs tomatoes with it.
    i only dig the spinach portion and always leave behind the sad, empty tomato shell.

    this looks fantastic.

    nice job OP!

    Can I. Use fresh spinach? How much would it be then. Thanks

    I'm sure that you can saute fresh spinach, tho I never have. Bet they would be delish!

    Thank you and that sounds delish, too. I will have to find that on Pinterest.

    I've been making these for years and they are awesome! ... though I suspect those calories might be a little understated that someone posted. LOL!

    I guess it would all depend on brands used, but that was the nutrition given on the website I used. Even if it was a little more, they are so good they are worth it!

    Oh yum. No food processor though so I'd have to use onion powder I guess...

    Fresh onion tastes better and you burn some calories chopping :)

    These look amazing! What are people having them along side? I'm going through a massive quinoa phase, and I'm normally pretty good at meal time- however, meal ideas would be great for these!

    I make them with marinated grilled chicken breasts. I marinate 4 chicken breasts in 1/2 c olive oil and 3 tbs Kikoman stirred and only for about 10 min. Then usually some grilled veggies or grilled pineapple or peaches.
