Easy Spinach Stuffing Balls Recipe

There are no words that could convey how much I love this Easy Spinach Stuffing Balls Recipe. Dipped in warmed marinara sauce, they are simply delicious! This one utilizes a dried stuffing mix, like Stove Top Stuffing. It already comes with all of the seasonings built in! Let me show you how I make it.

  • Chicken Stuffing Mix – be sure to get a mix and not just bread cubes. We want that seasoning that’s included.

  • Pepper
  • Canned or Frozen Spinach (defrosted) and squeeze of any liquids

How to make my Easy Spinach Stuffing Balls Recipe

Combine all ingredients and allow it to sit until the breadcrumbs absorb the liquids. If they are still too dry, you need to add more hot water. The mixture should be soft and moist going into the oven.

I use a small cookie scoop to make the balls and then rolls them smooth with my hands. They do not spread, so you can really load up the baking sheet.

So now they are ready to bake at 350 degrees for about 12 to 15 minutes or until just golden and set.

All that’s left is to warm your marinara. I just use my favorite jarred grocery store brand here.

Look at that texture! These are such a fun and delicious appetizer.
