Spinach and Cheese Balls
This is another recipe from my little green book but this definitely could be a totally modern recipe even though I last made it in my twenties. It is such a yummy recipe and the balls could be eaten without the sauce as a snack. In fact, I kept three out of the sauce and snuck them away into the fridge so I can have them tomorrow. It was just as well I did, because there wasn't a scrap of food left when the guys left the table.

Low Fodmap Bread Rolls & Mixed Vegetables

They are delicious and solve all your problems. Watch the video for instructions. The Recipe This is a simple recipe with few ingredients but it is a special favourite around these parts.
