 NOTES:


 


 *  A delicious appetizer or vegetable dish -- I learned this recipe from my


 mother.  I think she originally found it in the _Troy (NY) Times Record_.


 Yield:  Serves 12-20.


 


 *  These can be made up ahead of time and frozen.  If frozen, increase


 cooking time by 10-15 minutes.


 


 *  Herb stuffing mix is a commercial preparation of bread crumbs and herbs


 and seasonings that is packaged for stuffing a turkey or chicken. You can


 make your own if you like.


 


 *  This recipe makes about 80 appetizer-size balls, or about 40 larger


 balls to use as a vegetable dish at a meal.
