Cooking Tips

• You can use either fresh or frozen spinach for this recipe. If using frozen spinach, make sure to thaw and drain it before adding it to the mixture.
• Feel free to add additional seasonings or spices to the mixture, such as onion powder or dried herbs, to customize the flavor to your liking.

Storage and Serving

• These bacon spinach balls are best served warm, straight from the oven.
• If you have any leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
• To reheat, place the balls on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes, or until heated through.
