At first glance, these cheesy spinach puffs resemble meatballs but they’re much different.
Made with feta and parmesan cheese, these amazing puffs are crunchy on the outside and cheesy on the inside.
Use them as an appetizer or a delicious side dish (they can take the place of the humble biscuit), and you'll see why these are always a hit!
There won't be a single puff left on the plate once you serve these to family and friends, so feel free to double the recipe if you want to accomplish some simple food prep throughout the week.
These can be chilled for up to 3 days or frozen for 4 weeks. However, we doubt they will last that long!
You can also pack them up and travel with them for an easy snack, or a great donation to your next pot luck dinner.
