Ingredients
- 6 cups fresh spinach leaves
- 2 large eggs
- 1.5 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 cup bread crumbs
- 0.25 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Directions
Step 1
Begin by washing and drying the fresh spinach leaves thoroughly. Roughly chop the spinach into smaller pieces.
Step 2
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Sauté the spinach until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and allow it to cool slightly.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs. Add the shredded cheddar cheese, bread crumbs, grated Parmesan, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to combine.
Step 4
Once the spinach has cooled, squeeze out any excess moisture and add it to the bowl with the mixture. Stir until all the ingredients are evenly combined.
Step 5
Using your hands, form the mixture into patties about 2-3 inches in diameter and ½ inch thick. You should get approximately 8-10 patties depending on the size.
Step 6
Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the patties in batches, about 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and heated through.
Step 7
Remove the cooked patties from the skillet and allow them to drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
Step 8
Serve warm as a side dish, with a dipping sauce of your choice, or enjoy them plain as a light, delicious snack.
