A Crowd Favorite: Cheesy Spinach Balls
Spinach and cheese are a popular combination in a number of dishes and these cheesy spinach balls are no exception. This is a family favorite at all of our holiday celebrations and parties. I make it for all kinds of events from our New Year's party to our Super Ball bash.
Here's what you'll need:
- 1 package of frozen, chopped spinach
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan
- 1 cup stuffing mix
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup butter or margarine
First cook the spinach. Make sure to drain the spinach well to get all of the excess water out. If necessary, use a strainer. While the spinach is cooking, put the stuffing in a plastic sandwich bag and go over it with a rolling pin - the goal of this is to remove the lumps in the stuffing.
Once you have the cooked spinach and crushed stuffing, mix them together in a bowl. Mix in the cheese, butter and eggs. Once everything is mixed, roll the mix into small balls (the size of a large gumball). This recipe make between 32-25 cheesy spinach balls. Place the rolled up balls onto a paper plate and freeze. Please note, you MUST freeze them before cooking.
Once the spinach balls are frozen solid, you can put them in a plastic bag for easier storage. When you're ready to serve them, heat on a cookie sheet for 10 minutes at 350 degrees. Check on them periodically as all ovens are different.
I love this recipe because I can make them a week ahead and heat them just before my guests arrive!
Give this recipe a try at your next party!

Tasty Holiday Party Appetizer: Crab Rangoon
If you're hosting a holiday party, it's often easier to plan a menu that includes a lot of appetizers and hors d'oevres. Also known as finger foods, these dishes are great for parties because people can enjoy them standing, with a glass in their other hand, and they don't need to sit down with a fork and knife.
Perfect for both casual parties and more formal affairs - you often see passed hor d'oevres during the cocktail hour at a wedding or bar mitzvah, for example. One recipe I find my guests really enjoy is crab rangoon. Surprisingly easy to make, here's what you'll need:
- 1/2 lb crab meat
- 1/2 lb cream cheese
- dash Worcestershire sauce
- dash tobassco
- dash paprika
- 1/2 tsp steak sauce
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- 1 package Wonton wrappers (approximately 2 1/2 dozen)
- oil for frying
Combine all of the ingredients except wonton wrappers and oil. Place a heaping teaspoon on each wonton. Gather the edges and seal with water (or an egg yolk with water added and beaten). Deep fry at 375 degrees for 3 minutes or until brown. Drain on paper towels.
You can freeze these if you decide to make them ahead of time. Just reheat them on a cookie sheet at 350 degrees for 15-30 minutes.

Thanksgiving with a Twist
Delicious Thanksgiving side dishes!
There are always the standard side dishes you’ve come to expect at your Thanksgiving table – cranberry sauce, mashed potatoes, rolls and green beans. They may be family favorites, but maybe it’s time to expand your Thanksgiving Day menu.
Here are some mouthwatering side dishes that prove that the turkey doesn’t always have to be the only star of the dinner table!
Instead of cranberry sauce try:
Deep-Fried Cranberry Sauce Fritters (serves 3-5)
What you need:
1 (13-ounce) can jellied-style cranberry sauce (sliced into ½-inch thick rounds)
2 cups all-purpose flour (divided)
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup water
Pinch salt
Oil (for frying)
Get cooking!
On a parchment paper-lined sheet pan, lay cranberry sauce rounds in a single layer and freeze for four hours or until solid.
Place one cup of flour in a shallow bowl. In another bowl, combine the sugar, salt, baking powder and the remaining flour; pour in the water and stir until smooth. Let batter sit for 15 minutes.
Heat the oil in a deep fryer or large Dutch oven to 375 degrees F.
Coat the frozen cranberry sauce rounds in the plain flour. Next, dip rounds in the batter and gently place in oil. Fry until golden brown, about three minutes. Transfer to paper towel-lined plate to drain.
Instead of basic rolls try:
Sweet Potato Bacon Biscuits (serves 10)
What you need:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup mashed cooked sweet potatoes (cooled)
5 slices cooked bacon (drained and crumbled)
1 stick cold unsalted butter (cut into pieces)
2 ½ teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon baking soda
2 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
¾ to 1 cup buttermilk

Fun and little-known facts about the Thanksgiving holiday!
After you gather around the table for a hearty Thanksgiving feast, impress your guests and relatives with some witty “Turkey Day” trivia! From the first Thanksgiving to the first Thanksgiving Day football game, here are some of the day’s unusual facts!
The first Thanksgiving feast, which lasted for three days, took place in Plymouth, Massachusetts in the fall of 1621. The meal, according to primary documents, is said to have consisted of deer and “fowl,” which many historians believe was most likely duck. Festivals to celebrate a bountiful harvest were a fairly widespread practice with variations occurring across many cultures. Pictures of Pilgrims with buckles on their hats or shoes are thought to be an inaccurate interpretation of attire. That type of clothing became popular later in the century. Though the holiday was observed many times throughout the years including by George Washington and routinely during Lincoln’s presidency, it wasn’t officially declared as a national holiday, to be held on the fourth Thursday of November, until 1941 – a full 320 years after the first Thanksgiving!
It has long been a theory among sleepy Thanksgiving feasters that an amino acid commonly known as tryptophan found in turkey meat is the culprit when it comes to all the post-feast tiredness. In all likelihood, the sleepiness is just the effect of digesting a big meal combined with a relaxed atmosphere that often includes a comfy couch! Scientific studies show that tryptophan, although sometimes converted by the body into melatonin - a natural sleep hormone - cannot have an immediate effect on you unless it is taken on an empty stomach, which, with all the trimmings, side dishes and desserts served up on Thanksgiving, isn’t likely!
Thanksgiving Day wouldn’t be the same without the game, but when did that tradition start? High school and college football games were a Thanksgiving pastime at least since the College Championships were held on that day in 1876! The first Thanksgiving Day radio broadcast of a National Football League game took place in 1934 in a contest between the Detroit Lions and the Chicago Bears. It wouldn’t be until 1956 that the Thanksgiving Day football game was first televised to living rooms across the country!
