Spinach Ricotta Bites

In my search for recipes to sneak veggies into my toddler's diet (and mine), I found this one over at Weelicious. Weelicious never disappoints, so I gave it a try.

I'm not going to write out the entire recipe because there were no changes from the original.

You can find the recipe HERE.

Why spinach?

Everyone who knows me knows I hate spinach. It grosses me out. Something about it... blah. But I know, as did this smarty pants, that spinach is one of nature's super foods. I want to be super. I want my family to be super. So we try spinach... over and over... until we can find a way to keep it in our mouths and out of the trash.
