Spinach Ricotta Bites

Can we say YUMMY! & pretty much guilt free.. Although, I think I am going to try them with egg whites, not whole eggs! 

One of my BEST friends, Melyssa made these last night.. 

Meet Mel (we call her that) 

 And........ I have been craving one since. 

She got the recipe off of Pintrest (That site I told you about!) However the link to the real one is here:
