Cornbread Spinach Cheese Bites are an easy make-ahead appetizer using frozen spinach, boxed corn muffin mix, eggs, blue cheese dressing, and cheese. Don’t miss this easy video recipe.

I can’t remember the first time I had Cornbread Spinach Cheese Bites, but I can tell you they were part of every holiday we had when I was growing up. My Mom was a fantastic cook but she also liked the convenience of some packaged food to help speed the preparation. That’s exactly what this recipe is made of – easy convenience foods that you probably have in your pantry and refrigerator.

Easy Make-Ahead Recipe

One of my favorite things about this recipe is that you can make it up to three weeks ahead of time. Of course, you’ll need to freeze them.

Follow the recipe and bake the spinach cheese bites.
Cool them completely.
Place them in a ziptop bag and freeze them for up to one month.
To thaw, remove them from the freezer, and place them in the refrigerator overnight.
To reheat, bake them for 5-7 minutes at 325° in your oven or toaster oven.

Krazy kitchen mom tips

I use a small melon baller to make the bite-sized spinach balls. I spray it with non-stick cooking spray, scoop out a small amount of the mixture, roll it into a small ball and place them on my cookie sheet. I can get 6 rows of 5 on one cookie sheet which comes out to 30 balls. This recipe makes 60 of the small bites.
Be sure to use homemade or high-quality blue cheese dressing in this mix. It only uses a 1/2 cup, but don’t worry it won’t go to waste. Just use the leftover blue cheese dressing as a dip when you serve them. Here’s the link to my crazy good Blue Cheese Salad Dressing.
These make a crazy good snack. If you have frozen them just take a couple of them out of the freezer and microwave them for 45 seconds.
