Spinach Meatballs

These meatballs include spinach as a healthy twist. This recipe makes about 40 meatballs.

Ingredients:

- 1 package (10 oz) frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
- 1/2 cup seasoned bread crumbs
- 1/4 cup grated or shredded Parmesan cheese
- 4 garlic cloves, minced (or equivalent minced dried garlic)
- 2 teaspoon dried oregano
- 2 eggs, lightly beaten

- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 lb ground Italian sausage

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Grease a cookie sheet.

Combine the first six ingredients in a medium bowl. Crumble the beef and sausage over the mixture, and mix well. Shape into meatballs.

Place on the prepared cookie sheet. Bake, uncovered, for 20-25 minutes or until no longer pink, turning meatballs over halfway through baking. Drain on paper towels.
