20 ounces frozen chopped spinach
1 ? cups breadcrumbs
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup butter or margarine, melted
1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup grated Romano cheese
1/4 cup grated Asiago cheese
1 teaspoon dried thyme
2 cloves garlic, minced
8 shallots, minced
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
Thaw the spinach and drain. Squeeze out all of the moisture. Combine all of the ingredients in a large bowl and chill for three hours or overnight. Form into balls and place on a greased cookie sheet. Balls can be covered and refrigerated at this point for up to twelve hours. Bake at 400 degrees for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
Chef?s Note: the 3 cheeses can be purchased in a single package in the dairy case in many supermarkets. The brand is Kraft.
