Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1/3 cup red onion (finely diced)
  • 3 cloves garlic (finely minced)
  • 10 oz frozen spinach (thawed & squeezed dry)
  • 1 cup pork rind crumbs
  • ¼ tsp black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a large sheet pan with parchment and set aside.
  2. In a small skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté for 5-7 minutes or until soft and translucent. Add garlic and sauté for another minute. Remove from the heat to cool.
  3. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the dry spinach, pork rind crumbs, cooled onion and garlic, and the next 8 ingredients. Mix well to combine and let the mixture rest in the fridge for 5-10 minutes.
  4. Using a small scoop, divide the mixture into 16 portions and use your hands to form each portion into a ball. Place balls on the lined cookie sheet about an inch apart.
