Mustard Greens Mozzarella Munchies


When my favorite greens are not in-season I buy them frozen,that are convenient and nutritious at the same time.


Contributing generously to the daily need of fiber (5grams in each cup i.e 4 ounce of the green used) and packed with others nutrients of the mildly bitter mustard greens,these cheesy green munchies are quick to assemble and appeasing to the hunger pangs.
Recipe : Mustard Greens Mozzarella Nuggets ,adapted from Cheesy Spinach Nuggets, courtesy of Mirch Masala
Makes a dozen medium munchies(about 2 inches wide)
Ingredients
8 oz frozen Mustard greens(or spinach), thawed and drained
3/4 cup Partly skimmed Mozzarella cheese,grated

2 green chillies or any other hot peppers,finely chopped
1 tablespoon Chickpea flour or all purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoon canola oil
